Remarks: This simulator was once owned by British Airways and after all TriStars left BA's fleet it was donated to the RAF museum. Pretty impressive machine and the first time for me to see a TriStar cockpit. [Canon EOS 400D]

The lab has been sucessfully installed and is now part of the ISS. [Canon EOS 400D]
