I have this instrument in my collection. Any ideas as to type of aircraft this was fitted to?. AM on the front, but absolutely no serial or other marks on the casing, front or back.

The RPM and ASI look civil pre war to me,and the RPM,looks very
much like a DH82a item,if you post what is written on the faces or
the back,it would help.The T&B I know not!

Hi Denis,
I think the forum has a pretty good score rate at identifying miscellaneous aeronautica, so why not post anyway – someone will have the answer!

Thanks 682al
Are you an instrument specialist?, I have one or two others I can do with identification on.

Hi Denis,
It’s a Visual Indicator aka Loop Indicator, as typically used with the Navigator’s R1155 to indicate wireless bearings.
The accompanying diagram shows a typical installation in the Lancaster (Mk. II in this instance).
