What's this for?

Is it just the photo or is the T7 cockpit really that massive?

It's just lense of the camera that makes cockpit look THAT large. It isn't tiny, but not like this. ;)

hmmm, maybe they could make the option of both having the mx pages on both the FMC and the real MX panel.....that would be pretty neat. Just a thought.

I got access to the cockpit after my flight from melbourne australia to phuket on the T7 from virgin australia for my 18th birthday from my mum (thanks mum :) )

And i can assure you that the pic makes it look alot bigger than what it really is, although it was a little messy the cockpit i was in it was very small and for me to hop into the captains seat required a little hop skip and jump from the door.. there was a training pilot in the cockpit and they had to kick him out just for me to fit hahaha :)

 

All in all was a birthday presant i will never forget :)

they even let me play with some switches.. mainly just the nav display ones but also let me play around with some overhead switches to help shut down the plane to say for the next crew :)
