AJ88V Posted January 18 Report Posted January 18 no idea. it's on a pic of a 201 I'm looking at......
AJ88V Posted January 18 Author Report Posted January 18 It looks like the outer "blades" can move, but not any kind of speedbrake I've ever seen (and the listing doesn't call out speedbrakes). It appears to be painted the same dark metallic blue elsewhere on the plane. Plane has TKS, but don't think you'd put a not-aerodynamic element like that on top of the wing.

toto Posted January 18 Report Posted January 18 +1 on the GoPro mount. I’d bet it’s stuck on with adhesive.

AJ88V Posted January 18 Author Report Posted January 18 Thanks. Probably a GoPro mount based on consensus. Seems like an odd thing to take a picture of to sell an airplane. 1
OR75 Posted January 19 Report Posted January 19 A GoPro mount. If you want to take it out you can use a hair dryer or a heat gun

Marc_B Posted January 19 Report Posted January 19 It's a GoPro mount of course. I find that sometimes using dental floss wrapped around and tightened/pulled will separate under the adhesive. Take if off in the summer when it's been out on the ramp in the sun. A little 3M Adhesive Remover or GooGone would clean the residue off after removal, then clean and polish area with some WashWaxAll.

EricJ Posted January 19 Report Posted January 19 +1 that it should come off with dental floss or fishing line if you don't want to keep it.
