This is the landing gear knob from the B-52 Stratofortress with tail # 57-183. The B-52 is an amazing aircraft. First flown in the early 1950’s, it is not only still in service, but it is the backbone of our nuclear strike force and expected to remain in service with the US Air Force until 2050. An aircraft that remains not only in service but relevant for 100 years is unheard of. This knob is on the landing gear lever which is located on the instrument panel in front of the pilot on the right hand side. The level controls the deploying and stowing of the landing gear upon takeoff and landing. The landing gear knob from the B-52 F model is very unique and RARE. This item is in the category “Collectibles\Militaria\Militaria (Date Unknown)\Air Force”. The seller is “b52parts” and is located in this country: US. This item can be shipped to United States.
