It is fairly large, it has a captains chair, two seats next to him, two console in front, a view screen, a few lights for the various alerts, a back row of computer (...)

I have a MOC stuntfighter (sort of based on the [really, really old] 6861 X-1 Patrol Craft) which uses both an old-style monitor brick and a control brick, as well as a pair of (...)
