TR,
Just be careful with old aircraft instruments. The luminous paint can be radioactive - mostly on fairly old instruments I think, before the days of H&S - so exposure should be limited.
Aircraft museums put RadHaz warnings in aircraft cockpits and restrict access.
Not quite sure where this leaves the 20,000 hr airline pilot
