Pity about the compression on this - it's really hard to make out details. I do notice that the 'suits' have strange right arms - look at the wrist on the left arm of each, and then see how straight the right arms are - no wrist at all. Almost as though the right arms have some kind of attachment. It also looks as though there are more suits behind Shaw but it's impossible to be sure. This would lend itself to the statue idea, having statuesque 'sentinels' at the entryway to the pilots room.
