    Manual is AN 05-75AA-2( for auto lite manuf). Correct bulb is AN5225. Positive earth.

    Pins as follows:
    A to earth for 24V operation
    B to bulb
    C to bulb and negative power supply
    D to earth for 12V operation.
    To test substitute decade resistance for bulb.
    72.24 ohms= -50Degrees C
    90.38 ohms= 0 degrees C
    128.85 ohms = 100 degrees C
    151.91 ohms =150 degrees C.

    Hope this helps. Mike

    I have a copy of “les Curtiss H75” which details the history of the H75 in French service. Unfortunately it is in French and I do not read French, but from what I can o decypher: The plate is from H75 A1 construction number 12872, X874. Serial number 75 in French service.
    It appears that the aircraft was lost on 11/05/1940 at Stekene Belgium. Pilot S/lt Naudin. Part of 1st esc GCI/4.

    Thanks for the information.

    It is available if anyone is in need of it for a project. The freight cost from New Zealand might be a bit painful though!:)

    Thanks for the comments. It is such a nice gauge that it would be good to find the correct home for it.

    Came with a bunch of instruments from an old instrument repair shop in New Zealand. It could be from an early civil type or perhaps a military 30’s/40’s type. A few military possibilities from NZ operated aircraft are Vildebeeste, Baffin, Gordon, DH 4/9, Walrus.

    It has me beat.

    Hi Graham

    Thanks

    From the shape of the butt area it looks like a Curtiss blade.
