The Analog Cockpit is an actual Convair 880. With analog gauges, an engineering panel and an exterior shell, this cockpit reads "1960s/1970s style cockpit." In fact, this is the actual cockpit mock-up that was used in the classic comedy film "Airplane!" The windows fly away, making it easy to shoot from the front "through the glass" and it also splits in half, giving more coverage options while also making the set easily transportable.

A Piece of Film History
This is the actual cockpit mockup used in the classic comedy Airplane! Its look reads as a 1960s or 1970s flight deck, so it suits period dramas, retro-styled commercials, comedy and music videos as well as feature films and TV.
Typical Uses
Period pilot and flight engineer scenes, three-person crew dialogue, exterior nose shots using the shell, and stylized photo shoots that need real analog instruments rather than screens.
Complete the Period Look
Pair it with vintage wardrobe and in-flight items from Air Hollywood Props. For a more modern deck, compare the 727 Analog Cockpit and the Wide-Body Glass Cockpit on our cockpit sets page, or add a cabin such as the Wide-Body 747.
