wrong textures and push buttons in the cockpit

INTRO

UPDATED 11-JAN-2021 (#2965) UPDATED 15-NOV-2020

I took some time and compared the entire cockpit of the simulator with the real one. I'm using this issue to keep track of all the differences and inaccuracies of the Asobo model. I'm going to make a checkbox item for every issue I come across. Also feel free to remind me of anything that's missing.

I will take more and detailed pictures whenever possible. If you have high quality pictures and want to share them with me, hit me up.

I do know that our modelers and designers are not able to fix most of this for the time being. But it will come in handy once they are.

I made this tiny PDF with comparison pictures of the overhead and center pedestal. Im going to continue it this way with the other facilities in the cockpit. This issue will receive regular updates.
