I now got *real* yokes, but these came without the thumbwheels.
If you know of any, please let me know.

Apparently Nick at APHS has some but here is what he says about them, and I quote:

"...727,737,747 trip number reminder.
That's a lie that has become sort of fact by accident.
Started out as an ALTITUDE reminder, so most of these start at #4 in the left column and go no higher.
You know why don't you? When it was realized that this thing cost the airlines about $400 each,
but exactly ZERO pilots ever used them, they added the 5-0 digits and called them trip number reminders.
Number of pilots that used it for that...ZERO. ....."

I bought the yokes from him, and apparently he only got one and thatone in bad shape.
I'll give him a request anyway

I don't know, SAS use them in the flightdeck DVD I've got!

I never set mine. I know what flight it is and I have it written down. I always forget to play with the thumbwheels.

Apparently according to Nick, so did everyone else.

Mine came with one from an American 727 that he flew regularly. I wonder if he ever set it?

Also according to nick everything he has is ULTRA RARE!  LOL  There are 4 ULTRA RARE 737 fire panels on ebay besides the ones he has.  I have a few 737 inflight dvds and they all used the reminder for their flight number.
