Title: English Electric Canberra Virtual Tour - cockpit, navigator, bomb aimer
Post by: HaraldJoergens on January 07, 2015, 02:19:38 PM
For a client, the highly recommended Tangmere Military Aviation Museum (http://www.tangmere-museum.org.uk/) near Chichester, I have created a high resolution virtual tour of their English Electric Canberra B2 (WE113).

The virtual tour combines three interactive panoramas:
- The pilot's view in the cockpit;
- the navigator's view in his station behind the cockpit;
- the bomb aimer's view lying in the nose of the aircraft.

All controls, instruments, and switches are explained - just move the cursor over an area of interest, and a text will pop up (this doesn't work on touch devices - there is no cursor).

The individual panoramas were shot inside a museum's hangar, using the available light.

Click on the photos below to open the virtual tour, and switch to full screen mode!

A bit more about the panorama can be found here (https://www.haraldjoergens.com/panoramas/canberra).

More aircraft are lined up for 2015. If you can think of an aircraft that could benefit from such work, please let me know!
