[ARC5] nice ATC transmitter needed

[Taigh Ramey]

That's correct they haven't found the aircraft yet and they have called off the search due to the dry conditions. The area is closed off to the public too. It was last reported in a 1000 feet per minute decent so my dream is that is hit a down slope that closely matched the deck angle. A guy can dream can't he?

Thanks,

Taigh

I'm sorry to hear about the mishap.  The.last report I saw was that the crash site had not been found.

I have no ATC or ATC-1 in my collection, just an ATC calibration book.

Hello, 

I loaned a beautiful ATC transmitter to a friend for his TBM Avenger torpedo bomber as he was going to a gathering of TBM’s. Actually I had loaned a bunch of other equipment too. He was over a nasty part of Arizona, East of Phoenix, and had a catastrophic engine failure. Since landing options were pretty much nonexistent, he and his passenger bailed out. Thankfully they are a bit banged up from the landing but will live to tell the tale.

I am hoping to replace the ATC radio as it came out of our PV-2D Harpoon. It was a beautiful radio. An early version of the ART-13 but still in its Navy ATC livery. Would any of you happen to have an nice ATC available for sale?

Thanks in advance for any help,
Taigh
