At the controls of the 787

I managed to grab the pilot's seat on my visit last week to Boeing's Dreamliner Gallery in Seattle (okay, it was a mock-up, but it looks just like the real thing).

As you can see, Boeing is sticking with the good old fashioned control yoke for its second fly-by-wire airliner, which gives the 787 cockpit a traditional feel, despite all the high technology in there.

I also got a sneak preview of the 787's overhead crew rest area mock-up (click here to see my picture).
