Boeing 737-200 Cockpit

A stop on Hiller Aviation Museum: Unofficial Guide, a free self-guided tour.

The cockpit of a Boeing 737-200 lets you sit in a pilot's seat and see the controls of an airliner.

The 737 first flew in 1967 and became the best-selling jetliner in history, with more than 10,000 built in several generations. The -200 was an early version, used by many airlines into the 2000s.

This cockpit has the analog dials and switches of its era. Newer 737s use large computer screens instead, and they need only two pilots, as this one did; the 737 was one of the first airliners designed for a two-person crew.

Compare it with the 747 flight deck outside, which had a third seat for a flight engineer.
