Awww.. now you're getting down-right silly!! they're simply to grab
onto when climbing out of the pilot (and copilot) seats.. and when
climbing into the seats as well. Those are some tight quarters.

I think some are hinged.. and don't you get tired of that
rear-view mirror clogging up windshield space!!

No, definitely not. Could you imagine to stow, release, stow again, release
again etc. thoughout the day? :-))))
And think about weight penalty. But I must also add that on other A/C the
handles are in a somewhat more decent place as e.g. in the Airbuses, where
it is buried in the ceiling.

me neither.. here's my left-seat handle..

so ya want to see the whole `beast panel'.. on final into LAX..
http://home.comcast.net/~flightsim/whole_panel.jpg (190k)


That handle is rather large.. but not in the way really. Is it ever
enjoyable to fly the ol' Boeing in FlightSim. Only wish the young guys
had a chance to catch a ride on her for real. Those were the days..!!
It was `technology from our space program.' { in that newsreel voice }

p.s. yep the panel cap isnt shaped right but chopped for better view..

HA HA HA! ...How quaint, Dallas! The perfect touch (and maybe much
needed )

I can tell we probably relate to those dice. I had some in a '57 Chevy few
decades ago

Did you own it in 1957 as a new car? Or was this one of those "American
Graffiti" 1960's things?
