Space X is a capsule !! Like the Apollo capsule. Limited mobility and does not fly. The shuttle was an extremely complex plane with scientific labs on board(or jet if you like). Like comparing a rock to a remote control airplane. But yet a shuttle with new electronics (touch screen controls) would certainly be a much cleaner cockpit. In the 80's, 90's and early 20's, I worked on some of the shuttle control indicators and cockpit electronics and fuselage components, as well as military and commercial aircraft.

That certainly makes sense. Seemed to be a pretty minimal dashboard. Still interesting either way how tech has changed. Mule 1 Awards

That certainly makes sense. Seemed to be a pretty minimal dashboard. Still interesting either way how tech has changed. The touch screens kind of freak me out. I grew up in the tactile era of switches and buttons. And if a switch or button malfunctions then it could easily be jumped. Damn touch screen goes out your screwed and loose everything !!. But I imagine they have a back up. Maybe thats why there are two touchscreens. Either can control all functions. Mule, Hunter1948, TBB and 1 other 4 Awards
