Interestingly the B-1B photos are not the latest and greatest. The
steam gauge engine data has been upgraded to something that looks
similar to the B-52H screens. And that was from oh, a good 20 years
ago now? Big deal when I was doing flight test was human factors, do
gauges makes sense where they are, are they functional, stuff together
that you'd need to look at in an emergency. There would be mounted
photos by the base photo lab of the cockpit panels for the engineers
and pilots to go over. Worst was a F-16 fuse panel that was over
behind the shoulder. Real back to the drawing board moment.
