Just stuff I walked out the door with. Except the prop blade, it's over 6 feet long and weights 120 pounds. That was a bit of a project.
I've got the number 5 cylinder (master) from a P&W R-1340 with the rod sticking out the side. That one quit in a big hurry! It definitely got my attention when it did too.
I've also got an artificial horizon from a Bf-109 and a Spitfire. Not really airline stuff but aviation memrobilia no doubt.
