Description
Autopilot Mode Control Panel (MCP) from real Boeing 747-400 Simulator, manufactured by Hughes. Condition is "For parts or not working". Asking price is for less than what you would get from purchasing the same component removed from a flight deck, but the interface/panel is the same.I believe this simulator was a real fixed simulator, built by Hughes Aircraft Company, so the panel does not have backlighting, but most of the rest of the items appear to be real, and it was built to mimic the 747-400 in order to run tests.

This is from my collection of parts that I was holding onto in order to build a home flight deck, but I no longer have the time nor money to pursue this goal. I am giving up this MCP as is. I have not tested this to see if it works. Patina/scrapes/worn buttons and switches you see are from its usage in the 747-400 simulator.
