Hi Glen!  Chuck Yeager wrote about problems in the Bell X-1 aircraft with
the panel instrument needles "sticking" at times.  In a prop aircraft that
is not a problem because of all the vibration going on.  The X-1 was so
smooth the needles kept sticking (a problem with an altimeter for example)
So they attached some kind of big buzzer to the panel to keep everything
moving properly... Improvise, Adapt, Overcome !  hihi
