The present invention relates to a novel design of the front portion of an aircraft cockpit. The invention provides a viewing device which comprises a screen pivotably mounted on a mounting that allows height adjustment. The invention also suggests placing a screen at the top central portion of the instrument panel. Said central screen is movable between an extended position and a retracted position in which said screen does not block the view of the pilots through the cockpit windscreen. A cowl, made at least partially of a taut fabric or the like, is used to cover the viewing screens, except optionally the mobile central screen which can pass through the cowl via an opening provided for said purpose. The invention also suggests arranging an avionics rack in front of the screens of the instrument panel, in which the mounting is advantageously also used to support other devices (rudder control system, writing shelves, etc.). |
