A basic but good checkilist. Each panel can be raised for the phase of flight and a shutter system is used to either cover or uncover the item.
Multiple panels and individual items can be raised/uncovered at the same time if numerous items needed to be resolved (eg on the ground during maintenance checks).
Blue Knob is lighting control (dimmer)
We used them on our wonderful F28s in PNG and certainly were a simple yet safe system......you couldn't miss an outstanding checklist item.
$10,000 was the price thrown about in my day!
