A flight path of a physical aircraft vehicle is planned. A virtual three-dimensional model of a physical environment is provided. A placement indicator is tracked within the virtual three-dimensional model of the physical environment. Tracking the placement indicator includes tracking a location and an orientation of the placement indicator within the virtual three-dimensional model. A viewfinder display window that displays a simulated image captured from a simulated camera of a simulated vehicle located at the location of the placement indicator and oriented at a direction of the orientation of the placement indicator is provided. For the physical aircraft vehicle, at least a flight path and a camera image capture are planned using the placement indicator and the viewfinder display window within the virtual three-dimensional model.
