The controls are from a WW2 bomber. Can you please post all that is written on the controls next to the levers.
______ pilot off ____ Wheel Lock __ Bombs doors open
maybe a lodestar, Hudson, Havoc or similar medium bomber
The Sperry Gyro Horizon Indicator was used on many different WW2 aircraft. Looks like an early war model. It could be from the same WW2 bomber that the controls came from.
Thank you very much for the help! You were quick to find this out is there something that tells me how old it is(1940-45) so I can narrow down what plane it is.Confirmed! The control is from a Lockheed Hudson
you can see it in this photo

Thanks for the details, I have no information about the crash site.Unless it was recorded as removed from a particular airframe or recovered from a known crash site it's not likely that it will be attributable to a specific aircraft.
