  • Space Shuttle picture Link

    I received this in an email today, maybe it's been posted before but I've never seen anything like it. Pretty cool pictures, I had no idea what the interior looked like? Hey somebody wake up Randal and have him explain the Cockpit to us!

    Pretty cool pics. Never had seen inside the cockpit of one. The white room,really surprises me that they would allow that with how stuffy gov. types can be with anything that flys....even if it is a glider.

      Probably didn't have a choice.. Once one done it, they couldn't rightly ban the 2nd?

          I really want to get in there and switch all the switches and push all the buttons. Oh how I love a new car with lots of buttons.

              I wonder if those seats would fit in my Corvette, I hear the US put them up on blocks in their yard and they need money....

                    they're designed to let bulky guys be in comfort at 7g - I bet they fit just fine..... plus, ever ridden in a C3? comfort was not a word in the designer's dictionary.... of course, I put stiffer springs and sway bars in it - so what wasn't a word to the designers has become a word used by those in traction as something they've heard rumor of by never experienced.

                        In the 3rd photo, panel 14AG, four buttons over and three down, that one made the toilet flush. The poops froze immediately when ejected and made a great meteor show on the west coast later.
