C152 flaps lever

The 152's flaps lever on its narrow black plate: WING FLAPS across the top, 0°, 10°, 20° and 30° down the left in a slanted figure, the straight slot and the dark paddle reaching out of it. Drag the paddle to a position and the simulator's flaps go there; the white pointer beside the figures shows where the flaps really are.
