Abstract

A method and apparatus for inspecting an aircraft. The method displays, by a processor unit in a mobile device, a two-dimensional layout of an interior of an aircraft on a graphical user interface on the mobile device in which the two-dimensional layout includes fixed features visible within the interior of the aircraft. The method displays, by the processor unit, a three-dimensional view of a group of objects in the aircraft on the graphical user interface on the mobile device with a point-of-view at a selected distance from an object in the group of objects and in a direction when a fixed feature corresponding to the object is selected from the fixed features in the two-dimensional layout using an input system for the mobile device. The method changes, by the processor unit, the direction of the three-dimensional view in response to movement of the mobile device.
