Cockpit Layout

The document describes the overall layout of an aircraft cockpit. It is organized into four main sections: the overhead panel, glareshield, main instrument panel, and pedestal. The overhead panel contains system control panels in a cascade arrangement to minimize errors and ease procedures. The glareshield supports controls for the auto flight system. The main instrument panel displays primary flight, navigation, and monitoring information centrally for both pilots. The pedestal contains controls for engines, thrust, aircraft configuration, navigation, and communication.
