The windscreen is! :D
I think that it does, but I could be wrong. [It has been known]

Most of the 125-700's produced did not have a Glass Cockpit, however, towards the end of the production run a few (I only know 2), generally called the Super 700 were produced. I also know of at least one 700 that was retro-fitted with a Glass Cockpit so there may have been others.

This wouldn't mean an impending Britannia sim assessment, would it?

I have only ever seen 2 'Super 700's' with glass cockpit, although it is not out of the question that over the years a few more have been retrofitted with EFIS...however I am not aware of any HS125-400/600/700 simulators/procedural trainers with an EFIS set-up...

If you are on for a BY assessment, I hope the folloeing is of use:

It is on a steam driven 700. Not the easiest SID in the world but then that's the whole point - dont forget to turn @ 500' AGL and dont bust your height. Show some improvement on your second shot.
