A: Conn station
| The Delta Flyer's cockpit is larger than any standard Federation shuttlecraft built to date. The pilot's station is situated at the most forward point of the cockpit, which gives the helmsman a good vantage point for viewing outside the ship. To the front and sides of this station there are a number of control panels providing continuous readouts, including a cluster just above the head of the pilot that is set into the supports of the canopy.
There are also several 'retro' control panels to the right of the pilot, designed by Tom Paris to enable the pilot to "feel" how the ship responds in flight. These controls are based on early 20th century science-fiction designs, and include two-way toggle switches, analogue dials, knobs levers. Tom Paris' interest stems from an interest in 20th century science-fiction, in particular the Captain Proton holonovels which he enacts on the holodeck (although in [#106 Bride Of Chaotica!] he says that is the last of his interest in Captain Proton). |

B: Tactical station
C: Engineering station
| This is positioned at the rear of the cockpit. This station monitors the warp engines and other essential ship systems and functions. Many functions are duplicated at the conn and ops stations. | ![]() [#148 Imperfection]. A larger picture appears elsewhere in this article. |
D: Ops station
| This is located behind the pilot to the left on the upper level. The ops station reports sensor information, displays the condition of the shields, relays data on secondary systems, provides the pre-launch countdown, and controls the tractor beam and transporter. | ![]() [#100 Timeless] |
F: usually an unmanned station
| This is situated next to the conn station on the lower level. It provides various conn functions but it does not need to be manned. There is extra seating here should it be necessary to man the position.
At the bottom of the screenshot can be seen most of the LCARS console interface for this normally unmanned position. |
