Dave,
I have a rather extensive collection of pilots flight computers.
A few from WW2 era
and earlier.
I carry a small pocket sized prayer wheel of Viet Nam period in my dray for fuel consumption, time, distance, etc on my wanderings. I could use an electronic calculator but why would one do so when the prayer wheel is to hand.
If one is to practice the black art of Celestial Navigation a prayer wheel from the aviation world is a good fit I feel.
