Are there any on the Internet which are good quality and not grainy?

If not available, how about a DVD with good quality photography from WW2 training flights on multi-engine transports or bombers, even twin-engine attack planes which show the pilots moving switches and controls, with the view from behind or from the sides, possibly intermixed with views out the windshields etc?

The US History International Channel (Hint: this is NOT the better-known History C.) recently had the episodes about the competition to train on the Lancaster and Spitfire, but I saw nothing of actual hands-on training in the Lanc. c0ckpit, or clips of flying around the traffic pattern/circuit, filmed from an Instructor's seat (the Flt. Engineer's seat?).

Thanks very much.:)
