Due to the recent death of Wing Commander Ken Wallis, the 360 degree panoramic image of Ken and his gyros has been given quite of a viewing over the past week.

Unfortunately, the link published in a previous thread by Ian Corrigible was quite old and led to a Java based image on the elevation360 website which quite a few people could not access due to the new 'knee jerk' security restrictions imposed by ALL the current web browsers on Java content after a major US company was hacked allegedly through a Java based application.

Consequently, all the websites carrying the Java based images are being upgraded to different presentations of the 360 degree content.

There is a new version of the Ken Wallis image on the flight360 website here:- Wing Commander Ken Wallis 360 Panoramic Hangar View !

The new version is published in different versions (HTML5 and Flash) and your web browser will now automatically chose the best type of viewer to enable the image to display on your computer or device. The tiny minority of web users with Apple devices will now also be able to view the 360 degree images although due to the usual lack of compatibility with iOS, the full range of controls may not be available.

I have also placed a 're-direct' on the old link so it will now also display the proper version of the image.
