Such a small space for a large aircraft, claustrophobic would've hated it.

@Indianmalujl

If not digital, means human error risks and time losts will increase for pilots...

Today digital cockpits are better than this one.. So no need to check all monitors of cockpit...

@00thelastottoman00 So what if its not digital, it still shits on all the aircraft we have today, this is still the fastest manned aircraft except the space shuttle.
