I imagine you are talking about the Meljet 777-300. I have the same airplane and there isn't a virtual cockpit. I don't know why the plane was made with a virtual cabin and not cockpit but that's the way it was created and you can't really change that without modeling the whole thing yourself. I guess maybe the author decided that a VC and cabin was too big a hit on FRs. I wish however he'd included a model with VC for those who can handle it.
It's still a cool airplane though.
Edit: Just thinking. It is possible to create a 2D virtual cockpit. That is done the way a lot of planes for FS2002 and earlier were designed (before the VC). Simply take a screen shot of the desired view direction and install that as a .bmp for that view in the panel.cfg. You won't be able to freely pan around but you won't feel like you are sitting out front in the air when in the cockpit. even better if you cold get some photos of a real 777-300 cockpit.
