Wow – thanks Doug, what an amazing panorama. I thought that these were civilian airplanes – what’s that red “weapon release” button on the joysticks! LOL

Cheers

Dennis

Ruddy 'eck - I've enough trouble with my VCR, imagine what I could do in there!

I do rather like the hi-tech layout and then the notice stuck up on the door with a bit of masking tape.

WOW! That's amazing.

The plane could probably fly itself.

How come the pilot on the right doesn't get a HUD? You'd think with all the gadgets on the think you wouldn't favour one of the pilots. So much for redundancy!

That is pretty cool!

A family friend of ours is a QANTAS pilot working on getting the manuals and procedures all written and approved as well as the QANTAS configuration and specifications all set up.

He says they are pretty nifty things to fly!
