Does anybody have Google Earth its absolutely brilliant was just looking at Davis-Monthan AFB "Boneyard" and Dublin City alot of it is not fully developed yet but so far so good!

[pilatus]

it good crack going through it to see what you can find!on the key publishing forum they did a thread on it aswell!and they found parts of the old sam system which defended moscow found scud sites impact craters from cruise missiles etc!was quite interesting!though it is not up to date!the pictures you see are about 1year old at least!

i found baldonnel and dublin airport!you can see dublin airport clearly but not baldonnel!

I think they only developed certain area's so far1 I figured it was alder then Jan 05 as on the liffey the two structures beside Jurys Custom Hse are the Foundations of the new footbridge and i remember seeing them when i was in the big smoke in Jan 05

[pilatus]

Checked out Holloman AFB and Whiteman AFB no sign of any F-117's or B2's i expect they are all hangered but Holloman and Whiteman are crystal clear, did you check Area 51? there are alot of Janet AC on the ramp which is comical as the runway has huge yellow x's on it to show the Runway is no longer in use! also check out Dover AFB to see the USAF's major hub for C5 Galaxy AC!  '>

if you look at the skunkworks in burbank, you can see an F-117, a B-2 and what appears to be a bit of a museum with an SR-71 and a TR-1

Do i just type in Burbank ?

[Buran]

i cant get it at work so i cant tell you know, it was a good while ago when i looked.
i find the search thing a bit useless if you use anything specific.
if i remember right, if you type in burbank it will show you burbank town, and then you have to navigate yourself to the airfield. i think its northeast of the town. if you can get directions off the internet you can turn on the roads and use them to follow.
you could try find out the co-ordinates of the airfield an use them either.

sorry, i got burbank and palmdale mixed up

type in this address, then scroll east and north, have a look around.

Then, zoom out and scroll north east a good bit till you see the white splodge, or dry lake if you prefer, and look for the big compass marks on the ground, this is edwards, as far as i know.

1011 Lockheed Way, Palmdale, CA 93550

Have a look at what some chap found when he tried to locate his house at 52 20 11 North 0 11 34 W. Just imagine being obscured by the city of Lincoln.........
