XCOR Lynx: Flight panel

The Lynx flight panel is designed around a two-screen electronic flight instrumentation system. This system gives our pilots all the flight path and performance they require on the left screen and, on the right, all the information necessary to manage the engine and Lynx systems. Other instruments surrounding the main screens are present as backups. It is hinged around a center post and swings out for easy maintenance.

More on cockpit origins and progress in the coming weeks.

Pictured is an illustration of the final product in action at about 100 kilometers.

Tomorrow we cover slosh tests! Stay tuned.
