[simpits-tech] f-4 Cockpit on Ebay

[Scott Cerrito]

wow, gene...  impressed am i!    I just peeked at it, not that I could 
afford even 1/2 that cost, besides I am a 'vark kinda guy, if that was a pod 
I would have just been divorced... :)

Next question, if that is a F-4, why is the control column missing, and a 
stick on the right side console?
