Favourite Cockpit?

Out of all aircraft in the world, whether you have flown in them or not, which would be your favourite? It doesnt matter on the size (could be PA-28 and could be B744).
Mine would be the A340, it looks great and most pilots love it.

RE: Favourite Cockpit?

well i am also rated with the 200 variant,the cockpit is identical,bar some outside video cams that are on the 300 series,due to the length of the 300 the camera’s are needed for taxi,the video screens in the cockpit to observe the taxiing are really the only subtle difference,At Emirates i chose the 300 series due to the wider range of route options,but have flown the 200 also,i can’t wait for the ER to arrive and do a milk run to Perth my home town.

I love the 737NG but any cockpit with HUD system i like. Good to hear in new AW issue airbus are now fitting HUD’s on aircraft after Quantas required them!

Has to be the Concorde cockpit all those dials and gages love it and a tree man cockpit allot nicer during those short hops over the Atlantic. A real pilots plane.

Ok on a serious not, I think I like the B777 cockpit the best and indeed closely followed by the airbus family.

regards,

btw, Monster your not rated for all the B777. What is the main difference between them.

Lockheed L1011 Tristar

Nice and roomy – bigger than a 747.

Airbus family aircraft have the absolute best cockpits around, they just look so modern, brilliant!
