Swiss Cheese;

Many thanks for this. Here is a graphic of the pedestal as installed. The red rectangle area is the section shown in the photo. The blue section is the lower FMGC panel, the speedbrake handle and the parking brake handle panels behind and to the left of the thrust lever/engine switch panels:



From the photo we see the EIS Switching Panel, the ECAM System Display Control Panel, two thrust levers at the IDLE position, two trim wheels, the fuel control switches without the guards and engine fire lights. Missing are radio panels outboard of the trim wheels, the trim indicators themselves and the aft portion of the pedestal except for one FMGC panel which is resting to the left of the pedestal.

If I may ask, do you have any further photographs of the nearby wreckage? The outboard portions of the quadrant as described, are missing; they would be able to supply a bit more information; hopefully those doing the investigation are already well beyond this kind of information, however.
