Google earth never ceases to amaze

[mancombseepgood]

A new way of exploring google earth:

Download version 4.2 or later (Help - Check for updates online)
In Google Earth, press CTRL-ALT-A

Space to pause and help for other keys (just check out the controls they have built into this early version!)

Lotsa fun!

I suppose it would be referred to as such. It has been there for a while now - the controls are pretty realistic, although you can land and take-off in the Vaal Dam...
