Nope, thats an incoming Hamas Square Mortar round !!!
All our 757's will be of the standard half-glass configuration when we get them. Plenty of differnces between each plane since FedEx has acquired no large group of aircraft and Boeing offers so many customer selectable options. The fix would be an updated glass cockpit that some have mentioned on this website. We should know the company's decision soon. I believe 4 request for proposals went out and not sure how many responded. I have seen 3 of the 4 company's products and all are awesome AMLCD's which replace the hotter and more power consuming baseline CRT's. Each company can tailor the symbology to match FedEx commonality goals so the MD-11/777/757 should all pretty much be the same if FedEx decides to standardize our 757's. Hope that shed a little light?
