The cockpit of a Bell UH-1J of the Japan Ground Self-Defence Force

flight instruments in front of the right hand seat with the engine
instruments in the centre, while the aircraft commander had a
smaller panel with a less impeded view.The modern UH-1Y Huey
variant has similar multifunction displays on both sides.
