Here is a Pitot probe from a Pan Am Lockheed TriStar, and I’ve mounted it on wood to preserve this piece of aviation history. The Pitot probe is such a critical part of any aircraft—measuring airspeed by detecting the difference between static and dynamic air pressure. Having this piece mounted makes it a great way to showcase the importance of such components in flight while keeping the legacy of Pan Am and the iconic TriStar alive. It’s a meaningful piece for anyone passionate about aviation history.
Delivered to PanAm in 1980 then retired with the Royal Air Force.
