Cockpit photo looking back?

Sun Mar 14, 2021 4:18 am

My colleagues and I are playing the "Zoom background game" and I was wondering if anyone can point me in the direction of a cockpit photo that I could use. Free-to-use photos of cockpits are quite common on the 'net, such as this 787 cockpit photo from United. If I used that, my colleges' reaction wouldn't be "wow, it looks like you're in a plane" but rather "wow, it looks like you threw up a photo of a plane behind you" because sitting on the pedestal is probably pretty uncomfortable. So does anyone know where I can find a photo facing the cockpit door? Closest I've found is this one from Felix Gottwald

On most planes the rear cockpit holds the circuit breakers. If you do a google photo search for cockpit circuit breakers you can find some examples.

For instance:

perform a google search of "cockpit 360". when you find a picture in a link you like, take a screen shot.

examples:

Thanks for the links. Unfortunately this doesn't quite work on cockpits with three or more seatbelts since the camera is placed in the center of the cockpit, so the perspective would be off, unless I mount my webcam off to the side
