    Description

    This is the lower left and right front instrument panels from a Northrop T-38 Talon. This is without a doubt the coolest jet training aircraft in the world. Forget the fact that it is a real super-sonic trainer - It is the best looking, sexiest, jet in the United States Air Force! These are some very collectable pieces. The panels are in the condition show in the photos. For those who don't know, the Northrop T-38 Talon is a two-seat, twin-jet supersonic jet trainer. Not only was it the world's first supersonic trainer, it is also the most produced. The T-38 remains in service as of 2020 in several air forces throughout the world. The United States Air Force (USAF) operates the most T-38s. In addition to training USAF pilots, the T-38 is used by NASA. The U.S. Naval Test Pilot School is the principal US Navy operator. Pilots of other NATO nations fly the T-38 in joint training programs with USAF pilots.  As of 2019, the T-38 has been in service for over 50 years with its original operator, the United States Air Force. Those are just a few of the reasons that these instrument panel parts are so collectable. Notice that the left lower panels are the panels that house the jet engine start buttons for the left and right engines and the right panel contains the canopy opening T-lever. Some panel inlays are included. (You can see the included panel inlays in the views of the back sides of the panels).
    IMPORTANT: THE REAR PANELS HAVE BEEN SOLD - THIS AD IS FOR THE FRONT PANELS ONLY!
