Folks.. .I'm trying to find cockpit and airplane configuration information on either Cathay or Air France 747-400ERF's... (Freighter version of the -400)

For example

1. Do they have AUX tanks and HST's?
2. A4 Printer?
3. Autobrake selector on pedestal?
4. APU Static Inverter?
5. Towing Static Inverter?
6. ISFD with BCRS?
7. Crosshair type Flight Directors?
8. ELT switch (red flap type or guarded switch type)?
9. Rudder Trim CTR switch?
10. LDG ALT pushbutton type selector (rather than the single/pull type)?
11. Rad Alt readout in centre of PFD?
12. (Edit) Tyre Pressure indications on GEAR Synoptic?
13. Taxy Light switch?
14. Auto WAI & NAI?
15. Single Autostart switch?
16. Weight & Balance System?

(helping a friend with a simulator project and my usual sources are coming up empty handed)

Thanks!

"12. Brake Pressure indications on GEAR Synoptic?"

Sorry, of course I meant Tyre Pressure.
