THIS ONE IS FOR YOU BME
It’s the cockpit of the Enola gay (for those that don’t know: Enola gay was the name of the plane that dropped the first atomic bomb)
So for you BME this would be like driving a manual car.
No wizbang computer controls here😜

Oiii… i resemble that remark…!!
In all seriousness, i have flown plenty of " Old tech, raw data , general aviation planes"…
Piper Navajo’s, Beech Barons, cessna caravans, metro 2 and 3, Beech 1900’s…No LNAV and VNAV in them, all steam driven dials…
Single pilot IFR in a Turboprop is as challenging as it gets…

No wonder pilots fly into mountains
There to busy look at all these nobs and gauges to look were there going😂
But seriously I admire any one who can fly a plane or helicopter.
So good on you
PS: REMEMBER IT’S BRING YOUR KID TO WORK DAY NEXT WEEK
Russian Airlines.
No fancy flight radars or navigational equipment…… simply put a window in the floor of the nose and navigate old WW2 bomber style

I’m waiting for the Chinese built airliners….
NOT……
I worked in aircraft maintenance and component manufacture most of my working life… Boeing, British Aerospace, Air NZ…
If the cars and blasters are anything to go by, I hope I NEVER have to sit my arse down in a Chinese plane.

Hence, the standing joke…
“Do these planes crash , often…?”
“No, once usually does the trick…”
