Description

Would be very impressed if someone can work out where we’re flying into. Several clues worked out in logical steps.

In all seriousness though that’s a good representation of a 737 cockpit. Nice job.

Here’s a hint, check the altitude window on the MCP, then the minimums altitude.
 
Solution:  
Step 1. From the altitude window, 37100 and the PFD having metres mode up, we know we are flying metric flight levels, so either Russia or China, likely China since Russia has implemented ICAO flight levels in feet since 2015.
 
Step 2. From the minimums setting, we can see that it’s in BARO and is 10390 (or 5 digits, above 10,000 ft if you can’t read it). So either the Andes or the Himalayas. From step 1, we can narrow it down to Tibet.
 
Step 3. This one is difficult. There are only a few airports in Tibet which support CAT C (D in vis CTL. From the chart, we can see that it’s an ILS IAP. If we compare plates (difficult to find public Chinese approach plates), we can identify by comparison, or by observation, an ILS for a runway 26, would give the answer of ZULS, Lhasa GongGar.

I suppose finding the answer is more difficult then just figuring out if latitude and longitude are written anywhere.
 
I did learn a lot about aircraft navigation just now though.
