    They get fairly complex these days. New private jets are often prettier from a technical standpoint as they have all of the latest and greatest automation. Want to see amazing, looking at the new Cirrus Perspective cockpit. For only 500k it is a steal compared to that airbus and has most of the same features!

      Can you find the CD-ROM in there? Also, notice the boss-screen on the laptop. They were actually playing Mario... :laugh:

        Sweet. I'd love to learn to fly. I've flown a small 4 seater with a friend who has a pilots license, but there's no way I could afford proper lessons.

          I think that is a repost from a few years back :) I recall I commented about the crappy chairs.

                Yeah, that annoyed me. I sized it back and went straight to Tools->Options->Content->Advanced->"Allow scripts to...Move or resize existing windows" and unticked that one and all the others. (Firefox)

                  Hmm, It looks both small and simple compared with the last time I was in a 747 cockpit. A lot more window area which is nice but the seating looks a bit cramped. Maybe its just the 360 viewer. Obviously less read-outs are needed these days with large screens. I guess automation is maybe making things easier aswell. I wonder how much redundancy they have in their systems?

                    'tis fun an expensive, took the plunge and learned 6 years ago. Of course it costs about half what it does in the UK here.

                          I still remember having to write your own code in FORTRAN rather than be a cut and paste merchant being pampered by colour coded Intellisense - ahh proper programming - those were the days :)

                            When you have rowdy passengers just lower the cabin pressure to raise the relative altitude.

                                I have to admit, that was one of my first thoughts too - all this super-smart looking technology, clean and tidy, and then seats that look they've been dragged out of a squat, and as though the springs are about to start poking though... Anyway, I reckon the whiole thing's a fake - I mean, where's the steering wheel, huh? I smell a conspiracy! ;)

                                      Aircraft are flown on FMSs (Flight Management Systems) nowadays, basically a sophisticated autopilot, so generally only on takeoff and just before landing , two hundred feet above the runway, would you be in direct control of the aircraft. I wonder what cabin noise levels are like? I like the HUD system.
