Not exactly a walkthrough but very first-person!

Here's one I've been in, Avro Lancaster 'Just Jane'.

Excellent Link and Images. The Lancaster's interior looks to be a very spartan .

Quote: Also famous was a series of Lancaster attacks using Tallboy bombs against the German battleship Tirpitz, which first disabled and later sank the ship.
Galland (commander of the Luftwaffe fighters) considered the Lancaster to be "the best night bomber of the war", as did his adversary, Arthur "Bomber" Harris, who referred to it as the RAF Bomber Command's "shining sword.

I remember the first time I was able to crawl though a B-17 that was on static display. I was shocked at how small it was inside.

And all that thin plywood armour to protect the crew.
