Two PAB maker FCL, different catch

[Aurora68]

Hello all,

before I let these go please have a look on the catch of FCL #2

On badge #1 there is a catch like "?" as on Philippes book.

On badge #2 there is a catch like "C", open to the left side ( looking from reverse)

Is this ok??

Thanks in advance

Best

Martin

Wonderfull examples of a very hard PAB to come by. I have seen both types of catches by this maker (FCL).

Hi Martin......

......What you have are two good badges IMO.

I believe that this definitely indicates how manufacturers most likely used whatever applicable hardware they could obtain, at the time, from outside hardware suppliers.
