Hey Sovieto, don't worry, I'm not an expert either
Good idea to draw the whole thing!

I have taken the liberty to add to your image:


Green line: view from one end of the volcano to the other
(might be blocked not only by the volcano itself, but possibly also by planet's curvature
- although I'm not sure whether this still holds true for the real scales)

Blue line: view from surface to volcano peak.
(the curvature shouldn't spoil the view even at the extreme scales of your drawing)
