IMDB reports the "Controls are shown for a two-engine airplane."

This is a mistake, I asked it to be deleted. Here is the explanation I sent:

The engine QUADRANT or throttle combination is that for a three-engine airplane. It consists of six vertical levers can be moved forward and backward, these control (three ones in the back) engine speed, three other levers (to the front) thrust reversal. Each lever has side buttons. The one on the left has one button to the right, the one in the middle has one button to each side, and the one to the right has one button to the left. In this configuration the pilots can move all at the same time, or individually if there is a malfunction. See also the photo at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lockheed_L-1011_TriStar#/media/File:Lockheed_L-1011_Tristar_simulator_cockpit_RAF_museum.jpg

In the movie the side buttons are white in the Wiki photo they are black. These buttons do not do anything except to separate levers and make it easier for pilots to move them. It would be naive at best, and stupid at worse for the producers to rent an L1011, show outsides, and switch to a different airplane!

People, pay attention to what you post!!!
