Ebay Percival Prentice/Prince

Had to look through a few twin engined aircraft but it appears to be a Percival Prentice/Prince throttle box.

Given where I live in the North West I think it has to be the Kumbrian dialect

Will you be learning pure Klingon or its Rumaiy or Kumburan dialects?

As it is now common knowledge that my Serbo-Croat is not up to scratch I am now taking night classes in Klingon.

The seller’s description of the item on eBay:

Aircraft cockpit controls Levers Aeroplane WW2? Flight Parts Complete Display.

 

Acquired in an auction about 10 years ago have no idea what it’s from I can tell you it’s old

It’s on a display stand and underneath it looks like it was made to operate something on display

Very nice piece was going to put a light inside of it but never got round to it

 

I’ve never seen another whole one like this come up on eBay in a long time

 

High starting price but open to offers and answers of what it actually is from

Despite having been told that it is not a WW2 item but comes from a post-war Pembroke, the seller claims not to know its origin (maybe Brian should have turned up the volume of his message to the seller!) and asks to be told what its origin is (maybe Brian’s message was written in Serbo-Croat?) and still seeks to suggest that it has a WW2 origin (well, at least it’s not claimed to have its origin in a Lancaster!). But that’s eBay for you. Caveat emptor!

Apologies – a typo from me as the image I posted was from the Pembroke AP 4384A.

 

I have told the vendor that it is not WW2 and from a Pembroke.
