Barry,

Great photos, particularly those  of the Fleet.  I have never seen a 
Turn/Slip indicator like those with which it is equipped.

It would make a great touring companion for this 1932 Great Lakes that 
resides at our local airport.  It was restored by the owner from a basket 
case that his wife bought.
