Old Cessna 172s have the traditional six pack like this:
But ideally for future MD-88 pilots they needed a Cessna 172 that would help them build an MD-88 styled two pack scan:

I pulled it out, re-racked it and managed to stay in the hold. ... the examiner shrugged and did not say a word. ... Figured it was an early start on the sort of techniques required to operate the Mad Dog.
Hope you'll do a pic of an A330 A arriving to Atlanta, a red "enhanced mobility scooter" strapped to the side of the cockpit, sporting a Minnesota state flag on the tail & random silver radome & engine inlets, Captain holding a Viagra bottle in one hand and a bottle of DEET in the other while the FO in ear buds peruses a "Airbus flying for Dummies" book & a Delta Connection Academy sticker. (that should just about upset everyone

As part of my SOF upgrade I got a Tweet ride. After 15 years, I just wondered how anybody could fly that thing, and marveled that I did.
