Fields I have flown on. Use the birds eye view to zoom in.
« on: September 04, 2009, 08:08:28 AM »
Can someone test this for me? For some reason it will not pick up the last 3 numbers on the link. So you have to copy and past the link in a browser.
It should bring up a map with some push pins on it.

Update: This are a few of the fields I have flown on. Copy and past the link in a browser. You can zoom in with the birds eye view. Kind of cool. Just messing around last night and thought this was cool.

Post a few of your flying sites and share.

  Nope, the map that came up for me had the East Coast on it. It even had a spot on Halifax Nova Scocia.  LOL

Here's a photo I borrowed from a Windy DVD. It shows Brodaks a little greener and a lot more crowded. He has some great video from the air on the Brodak 2009 DVD set.

That was some fun to watch.

The first time it did not have the pins but after I added the !112 at the end in the browser it worked fine.  That was the "Purtiest" model airrieoplane at Brodak's.

That is an awesome video.  I have did the goggle earth and found the fields I have flown at.  Even downloaded the aerial views.  Thanks for the video.  DOC Holliday
