Sorry about the poor audio quality (and points where I interrupted the Museum of Flight curator, Dan Hagedorn). This was an impromptu recording that I decided to share here; it's gotten a lot more views than I anticipated.

So cool. It’s a shame the shuttles are retired. An even bigger sham we didn’t have a replacement for them.

Though factually speaking they went on for least a bit longer than NASA originally planned them to be used for, were meant to be just 10 I believe but ended up being used for 20

None of the orbiters on display are gutted. Endeavour had a few below deck tanks removed but that’s it.

This guy is wrong on so many things. For instance he talks about the ladder. The one they show is what flew every time. There was no special ladder. He mentions that they climbed it before launch to reach the flight deck. Nonsense!. In the vertical the crew sat on the potty door and slid up to the upper deck. The ladder would be in the horizontal position prior to launch because the orbiter is pointed up.. The black rubber round things on the potty door are simply towel holders. The crews did have their own colors. He mentions the cooling pipe on the mid deck. That wasn't for cooling during training. It was for on orbit when everything was stowed against the wall, cool air could still get out of the vent as everything was held against the wall by a net. The blue Velcro was standard configuration for the orbiter. The yellow was temporary. The trainer was not an exact replica of the real orbiters. The straps you slide your feet under are called foot loops. There were many configurations. He says the orbiters were gutted. Absolutely not true. They all still have their avionics and panel displays. He says there were 4 cameras in the payload bay. There were six, two on the Canadian arm also. He kept saying that the crew did egress through window 8 overhead if needed. The only egress window was window 7 on the starboard side. He said you could access the flight deck through the starboard opening. Not true. A fan was installed there to bring cool air up to the flight deck on orbit. The middeck lockers also were too high for anyone to get through the access.

Why they didn't modified this trainer to comply with the new shuttle cockpit when all the actual shuttles got avionics upgrades?

Its an artifact, its what the astronauts would have used regardless of the year. You can't just change that, seeing as this is a museum and its mission is the preserve. I imagine they had trainers that did have adjusted make ups, but the museum wouldn't dream of modifying the artifact to look like the upgraded shuttle.

I asking why didn't they did that before it was sent to museum, when it was used as trainer when cockpit got updated.

This trainer was primarily used to train how to live on a shuttle, so how to make food, use the batthroom, that kind of thing. It wasn't really used on how to use the cockpit, though the buttons were in the same layout. So they likely left it alone because they wanted it to look like how the astronauts training in it saw it.

Because this was just used primarily to rehearse day to day operations when in orbit, they also had a full operational flight simulator which would pitch and mimic all the liftoff and landing processes used in the operation of the shuttle including a full countdown rehearsal with launch control.

Heard actually (rather from videos from the ISS) with the mention of gravity with blood circulation actually has a horrible effect for a while on people not really certain if its from circulatory problems but some experience like a really bad cold for say a month I think at most then the body just adjusts to it

Listen to this tour guide at 17:51 he is telling you that the astronauts popped those upper hatches and did space walks!!!! Take a close look at the massive airlock down below. And then imagine popping those little hatch clips and going into outerspace!!!! And did you notice earlier in the video he shows you a PVC tube to ventilate the cabin when used as a trainer. Imagine what kind of heat would be generated when you have the full force of the sun beating down on it in a pure vacuum!!!!! So if you can't air condition the damn thing without running a vent to the outside when in normal atmosphere. Then time to rethink what this multi-million dollar pile of crap really is!

He didn't say that at all what he said is that all the Shuttle crew had to do an emergency egress training exercise out the top hatch and absail down the side of the orbiter mock up as part of their flight training, this was the case.
