 This is
probably the best picture of the whole setup so far... it includes the
fluorescent panel lights plus an image of KORD's active runway at night. |
 The same
picture, only with the "night saving red" cabin and instrument lights
turned on. At present I'm unsure exactly how to backlight all of the
original round gauges, so we may or may not keep the red lighting. |
 This is
an image of the Flight Engineer's station, with the beginnings of the
indicator lights being activated. The Flight Engineer station will
be totally non-functional, being lit up only for "show". |
 Same
image, only with daytime lighting on. |
 A good
overall shot of the cockpit, including the temporary GoFlight throttle
quadrant. Again, we'll be using the GoFlight radio modules and
autopilot MCP in the final set-up, but the housing is temporary until the
"real" throttle quadrant is refurbished.
|
 This is
the closest thing we're going to do for an "ACARS" printer. It's
simply a networked printer that I print the flight plans and such on, and
it's installed behind the pilot's seat. More about what it's sitting
on in a later pic. ;-) |
 This
again is an overall cockpit pic, but this time with the white cabin lights
activated. |
 Looking
through where the front windshield will ultimately be installed, here's a
different perspective of the Flight Engineer's station. |
 I was
looking for a little extra fun realism, so I picked up a couple flight
crew oxygen masks from (where else?) EBay.
|
 Here's a
closer-up shot of the GoFlight throttle quadrant and the middle of the
instrument panel. The panel gauges are for the 3 engines on the 727. |
 Aha, now
you know what the printer is sitting on! It's important to stay
well-hydrated on those longer flights! |
 To
close this round of pictures, here's a "night vision red" image of the
pilot's instrument panel view. |
