My failing memory is that they were desktop controls typical of other Dash 8's.

but, some of the 100 class have been retrofitted with AARs to make them more suitable for switching. that's what i'm asking about in regards to the 500s.

I've been told that all of the 100 class now have AAR control stands.

Does anybody have a photo of what the cabs on the 100's look like now? I don't believe I've ever seen a shot of one that was retrofitted.
