Hi Fly.Buy: If you know the link for that closed JU52 auction please post it. I searched Euro & US Ebay (Sold Items) and didn't see it. So I'm assuming it didn't sell. Thanks...

Unfortunately, I can’t understand in which section it’s better to ask a question, for this I’ll ask here. In Ukraine, they are now selling a very rare device from the Tu-22m3 and Tu-160 aircraft.If anyone has an interest, please write personal messages
Certainly military, Martyn, but I don't think for flying anything from the cockpit. Looks like a systems joystick. The same shape, by Mason manufacturing, has been used in a lot of aircraft, from early B-58 Hustler to current B-1.

Thanks Ian, that makes sense. I bought it along with an F-8 and FJ-4 stick top from the US around 15 years ago. I have a flight manual for the B-58 so I'll see if it's shown in there.

Hi Martyn,
Thanks for posting the additional pictures.
I, like Ian seem to think that it is a system operating handle not, a flight control handle. The abbreviations POL and FOV I am struggling to work out, along with 'slave'. Not markings I would associate with a flight handle but, someone may know different?
The only thing that perhaps springs to mind, is a refueller boom operator control handle maybe?

Martyn, was this purchased in the States or UK?
MOD abbreviations has FOV as ‘Field of view’. POL as ‘Petrol Oil Lubricants.’ No mention of acronym SLAVE.

Hi Darrell, I'm fairly sure that it came from the US, but memory can be a strange thing. Thanks for the meaning of the FOV and POL. Forgive my ignorance but what does FOV mean in relation to aviation?
Very good restoration, Visotka. Which yoke is that? Not the An-12 or IL-76. I had a tour of an IL-76 at Fairford Air display in the summer, it came with olives and Vodka!

F.B
Indeed, you are right, the common (UK) abbreviation for POL is 'Petrol, Oils, Lubricants' but, I fear that it is not likely in this particular instance, especially that Martyn's grip is of US origin and not UK MOD.
I too have a Mason grip of unknown origin/use that has an up/down 'coolie hat' switch and the abbreviation 'POD' next to it. No idea what POD stands for but, my gut instinct seems to point my grip being rotary wing use however, that's another story somewhere in the middle of this column/grip thread and I'm no nearer to identifying it either!

Going with the "SLAVE" acronym, it could be associated with aligning the seeker head of a missile, to a method of target location, ie. radar or infra-red.
I'm sure I've heard it being referred to as "SLAVING".

Hi Alex,
Sadly, since the change in this forum format, PM's are not available any more, yet???
However, nice new yokes!

Hi Martyn,
Any chance of a picture of the front and top? Are there any manufacturers marks or numbers?
