A HUD. Not like a 737 NG where the pilot can use it in low viz situations, i mean a HUD used as the Primary Flight Display. Once you go there, you will never go back.

The 777 needs two mods in the office.
1. Fold to the side control column, perhaps like an old Baron or Aerocommander. 2. Lie-flat seats for a better snooze position. halas |
737 Classic & NG
1) Comfier seats. My £500 car has better seats. After 4 sectors one loses all feeling in the derrière.
2) Better sun visors. Rather than a ineffectual tint, why not a fine fabric mesh like those used in car sunblinds? |
My sincere thanks to all who responded to this line. I will use a lot of what you recommended and hope to put together a capable cockpit within financial sensibility (reality butting in again). I really liked the free-for-all wish list approach on some of the responses and think that there is a great cockpit like that coming down the pipe some day. As for my own preferences I like the addressable above/below TCAS, a night visor for cockpit glare, the newer Iridium network phones over Satcom and a good place on the side console for a notepad and coffee cup. HGS is great but perhaps one that incorporates EVS is better.
Thanks again. :ok: |
A wine rack for the duty free?
Depending on ac type, ANR headsets could be a good thing (73's a noisy bugger). |
Curtains: To keep the sun from drilling a hole through the back of your head.
Very large dustbin: To put soggy apple cores, half eaten sandwiches, tins of coke, and old ACARs messages into. No Paper: When the all up weight of the paper exceeds the all up weight of the aeroplane, it will stop. Put paper in dustbin. Double Bed: Just for me. You can never sleep too much on an aeroplane. Dancing Girls: Yes please. Good for long night flights. (see double bed) Free Sat Phone: Gotta talk to someone, once pensions, bidline, and the state of the FOs portfolio has been discussed to death. DVD Player: Networked PCs with fast internet connection: For some heavy l337 uber d00dz PvP action. "4ll y0ur b4s3 4r3 b3l0ng t0 us" Oh Yes. L337 |
I agree, a completely paperless cockpit - one of those Jeppesen fan-dangled gadgets with all the approach plates and charts stored in it which you can access at the touch of a button. Looked at one at Farny last week, v. impressive.
Aside from that, a beer fridge. Tri:ok: |
