Inside the Aircraft Part 4 – The Flight Deck

Have you ever boarded an aircraft and seen the flight deck door open and looked inside and thought wow look all those switches and dials. But I have a question

Does a pilot actually know what every single one does?

As you’ll probably know there are many different types of aircraft manufacturers around but the vast majority of the controls are the same. Pilots know what every single switch dial, lever does and when to use it.
