Hi Infonatal, sorry to hear this, even it is not related to me and my pictures I hope you get the issue sorted out with Gigapan Systems.

Is it possible to get a copy of this panorama? Is there a service where you can print such a huge image?

Hi, may I ask for what reason you need a copy of the panorama? gigapan does not offer a printing service yet, maybe this could be a future business model? Send me an email and we will figure out the details...

Did you finally print the panorama? I would love to see it on paper!

Finally I found a printing service which was able to print the panorama at a reasonable price of around 100 Euro. The printed panorama is 5m and looks great. Would love to print it in full size of 13m, but I would not know where to display it. I hope one day the airport will contact me to get a printout of it.
