Super Guppy Cockpit

Hi;
Does anyone know where I can find cockpit photos of the Aero Spacelines Super Guppy. I've been working on one, and I would like to add a VC if possible.
I've already got the images on Airliners.net, Jetphotos.net, and Myaviation.net. I've also done a google search.
Unfortunately, there isn't enough coverage of the whole cockpit to make a VC, so I am still looking for more pictures.
Can anyone help.
Thanks;

I've been up in the office of that Brunty one and it is complete, I think they might even have power capability..
Anyway, took photos of it I know for sure. I'll see if I can dig them up.
Dano.

Hi Graham,
Wow your working on a guppy?
Yet another niche in the FS world that is being adhered to. Hope the project is coming along ok. Any chance of some WIP pictures? Or are you saving them...!? :eek:

From what I read years ago, the flight modeling will be even more of a challange, very odd to fly and NO autopilot at all :shock:

I was going to suggest the same thing - with the engine instruments
from an Electra panel - seeing as they have the same engines
No Autopilot???? Of course they had one - the one that sits in the right
seat
