Found in a place of plane crash.
Number of this part is AF43-42004

Probably it's B-24, B-25, B-17 or something similar.
Could you help me?

Regards,
Shin
 
It's post-1943
that's when Pioneer became the Eclipse-Pioneer Division of Bendix Aviation
I'll go for oxygen regulator too
 
Many Thank's!

Could you tell me, in which models of plane was this part used?

Best regards,
Shin
 
The AF43 of that number is the Vendor Code for Bendix Aviation. The rest of the number is the serial number. Hard to tell if that's the face or rear of the unit. It was probably used in multiple aircraft. Do you have info on the crash site?

Probably plane from 15th Air Force. But I'm not sure, my friend found it... I'll ask him for more informations.

EDIT

The most probably is that is a B24 Liberator from 450th Bombardment Group. My friend said that.

Good find

Now that I know it's DEMAND you can see the E and the A too :)
