Boeing Planes All In A Row

[Pale Rider]

Pretty cool picture of Boeing passenger airliners all lined up from what I believe is the 777 on the left, right on down....

[hjmick]

And panels that I have made are in the cockpits of every single one of those planes.

Which panels would those be hj? I'm an old Air Force instruments and flight controls guy, I'm interested.

Cool!

We make the panels for Collins, Honeywell, Lockheed Fort Worth, Sikorsky, Boeing, McDonnell Douglas, Lear Astro, Lear Siegler, the list goes on.

We've got panels on the 737, the 777, the F16, Apache, Blackhawk, the Osprey, the B1B, the Bradley fighting vehicle, the CH53, again, the list goes on.

If it's illuminated, NVIS or not, and in the cockpit, there's a good chance the company I work for made it, though there are a few smaller panel houses. The panels cover the whole spectrum of cockpit controls.

Hmmm... no General Dynamics. That's what my F-16's were. That was when I worked on the flight line.

However I also worked in CRS, see my avatar. (Component Repair Squadron.) When I was there we did bench tests on LRU's from F-4's, which were McDonnell Douglas.

When I first started working here, the F16s were GD/FtW, Lockheed bought GD a few years back so I now leave GD of the list, but we did the entire instrumentation for the F16.

We also did the NVIS conversion Australia recently did on their helicopters and we've supplied Israel with replacement panels for their F16s.

Nice pic, Pale.

Nice shot....... the planes (guessing on model numbers) from right to left are: 707-320 (looks like the biggest 707), 717, 727-200, 737-800, 747-400 (maybe the new 747-8), 757-200, 767-200 and the 777-300. The 787 is missing. The 717 is actually a MD-95 based on the DC-9 developed by McDonnel Douglas before they merged with Boeing.

A Concorde is in the back right and a special 747, that was built to transport large parts for the 787 Dreamliner, is on the left. Also above the 747 in the line is a B-47 Stratojet bomber that was the first swept winged jet bomber in the U.S. Air Force arsenal(1950s, replaced by the B-52). To the left of it looks like the classic "Gooney Bird", Douglas DC-3 that was used in a modified version as "Puff The Magic Dragon" in Vietnam.
