For those interested in a bit more detail of the Dreamliner cockpit (enlarged quite a bit and the focus varies towards the top of the mail panel).
The bottom section of this panel is for the test aircraft only. ![]() Comms and transponder have small numeric keypad for frequency input. ![]() The left and right mouse pads can be seen either side of the throttles. ![]() All the items on the left of the display are the fuses which are manipulated electronically (they no loger physically exist on the overhead panel). ![]() ![]() ![]()

Thanks to your tips guys I took the kids for a drive and saw N707JT on approach to MEL runway 34 Saturday. Driving back, saw him parked in front of the JHAS shed so went in for a closer look. Apologies for the obstructions esp fence - camera is weather resistant but lens is not so stayed in the car...
Loud enough just idling. Poor Julia missed out on riding around in one of these beauties ![]() |

After reading this story I feel really lucky to have sat in the left seat during ZA001's visit to Sydney.
Seems all to early to put her away. From Puget Sound .... Quote:

Yes agree it seems a bit early to retire the aircraft.
I think the prototype 747 was used as a test bed for many years. I also thought the prototype 737 was used by NASA once Boeing had finished with it. |

Hi all
The Qantas Australian Way magazine had an interesting article regarding the 787 and the delivery process of the 737-800's to Qantas. It may be of interest to some. The link is here http://travelinsider.qantas.com.au/7...:flash-random3 Dave |

Dreamliner ZA003 will be visiting Singapore on Feb 11-18 as part of the SE Asia Dreamtour, demonstrating the aircraft to Singapore Airlines. It will also be on display at the Singapore Airshow.
