..or a selection of, for light, GA, Aircraft... ;)..!

Hello Chums...

After a recent computer crash, I lost all my many years of Gauge collections, and I need to refresh my collection again, starting with Parking Brake Handles, either the "Umbrella handle" type, or the push-pull knob type.
If you have an Aircraft in your Hangar sporting these handles (gauges) on the panel of one of your free-ware Aircraft, post me a link to the Aircraft... ;)... ;)...!

They don't seen to be fitted to any of my FS 2004 Default Aircraft, for me to copy.

Thanks Folks!... :)...!

That's one of those things that I know I've seen a few times, but I don't remember which specific addons had them!
I'll keep my eyes open.  :)

..in the meantime I managed to find these two Electrical Parking Brake toggle switches from Avsim: "pkbrk1.zip".
....one coloured grey and the other coloured tan, with indicator lights.
They are small enough to fit into a small space.

...still on the look-out for mechanical Parking Brake handles to add to my Gauge Folder

There are so many different Austers!.... ::)...link to one with a Handbrake?

I managed to find an AOP9 with some sort of Handbrake?

I used to have a very nice animated (on/off..up/down) walking stick-type handle Handbrake...
..but lost it in the Crash!

Useful for pre-flight, run-up checks... ;)...!

Paul.

Handbrakes are vital for Turbo-props, to prevent them from creeping forward into the Fuel Pumps, at tick-over!... :o...!

All the Austers I've tried have a parking brake handle on the 2D panel. It might not be exactly what you're looking for but it works. Try the Aiglet here. http://classicbritishfiles.com/index.php?option=com_remository&Itemid=162&func=fileinfo&id=1385

..that one will do, Doug!... [smiley=thumbsup.gif]...!

Red Auster Aiglet Trainer.... :)...!

(Different 2D panel to the other ones I looked at).

Got the Handbrake!.. :)...!

A nice little 2D panel on that one. I can add all sorts of useful "things" to it!

Paul...More holes to drill in the 2D panel!... ;D...!
