Chebanse, IL.....

You're familiar w/the B-29 named Enola Gay, right? Flown on it's WWII A-bomb mission by Col Paul Tibbets. The plane is in the Smithsonian @ Washington DC. If you click on the following link, you'll get a very nice 360 camera shot of the cockpit. You can control the view. Click on the last icon on the right & the image will go "full screen" with the control button icons still showing on the bottom of your screen. You can let the image rotate by itself, or control left, right, up, down, zoom, un-zoom. Note on the RH side of the cockpit the flight engineer rode backwards w/all the critical engine instruments & controls. The pilot only had the throttle levers, not prop, boost, or mixtures. I found this presentation enjoyable. There is no audio.

Here's the link:
