Show me the ATM.

Looks very similar to the Honeywell Epic "EASy" and "Planeview" systems in Falcons & Gulfstreams.

What are those two black things sticking up from the floor in front of the pilots? Good grief people, we're in the 21st century!

Amen to that. Boeing needs to get their head out of their butt.

 

[say again]

Design frozen at this point.....

seems like the whole project is frozen, thawed, frozen, thawed, frozen.

What is that control panel bolted to the top of the dash? Looks like an afterthought.

I saw video documentary on the making of the 787 (courtesy of Boeing) and it looked like a basic LED display of speed readout and I think it is for the ongoing test program. Even though this plane is painted up, it's still being used for ongoing testing and I heard this flight was for Fuel Temperature monitoring and planning calculations.....

The cockpit concept photos do not contain those on the glareshield.

Total failure. Go back to Airbus wannabee pilot indoctrination. Real airplanes have real controls.

Flight test/certification thingy?

Bwahaha and where do those yoke go?

Yeah exactly... get rid of them and put in some side sticks.. Ergonomics are a good thing.

The yoke is just a pacifier for those that can't think outside the box. The computer that the stick in the airbus is attached to on the sidewall is just moved under the floor and attached to the bottom of the yoke.
You thinking this isn't fly by wire??
