Why the DC-10 Cockpit is different from the real

[Netinho1109]

As you can see I really like the DC-10 and one of my biggest doubts why they did not make the cockpit like the original more like in MD-10

I believe it’s the same cockpit as the MD11, which is the glass cockpit. I’m not sure so don’t quote me on it but the DC10 can also be retrofitted with it in real life.

the adapted version is called MD-10 and not DC-10 in addition only FedEx did this

As everyone said it’s part of the MD-10 program, FedEx and Orbis have the MD-10 upgrades

Exactly and I think the DC-10 deserves the original cockpit already, for me the DC-10 represents an era

[NeperQiell]

Yep definitely, the DC-10 should have its own cockpit

You know, since you’re TL2 already, I bet you could make a feature request for this.

[Netinho1109]

I think that would be a good recognition for what this aircraft has provided us over time

[Netinho1109]

I will turn TL2 to 1minute ago 🤣

Wait, there already is a feature request for this:

DC10 Cockpit Rework

[image] When the DC10 was added I was hoping that we would get an anolouge flight deck but we did not. Though the cockpit we do have kinda works with refurbished FedEx models, it feels very wrong to fly an older airline livery,with it. Not to mention that our DC10 FedEx livery is is unrefurbished condition. At this point I avoid the classic DC10s because of the oversight. Not to mention that we have a distinct lack of non-glass cockpits in IF.

Many thanks for the warning did not know I spent some time looking for and had not found anything about it
