I put together a set of placemarks with information and multiple angles of some of the best flightsim locations on the Earth. Make sure terrain is turned on. More instructions within the file.
a model of the saturn in 3d with high quality texture. You will need to be using Google Earth 4 Beta. You can spin the model and look at it from different angles.
These models are specifically for the new free Google Earth 4 (beta) and utilize texture mapping to add a great deal of realism to the scene. Texture maps are photos applied to 3D models so you can add great detail without slowing down the 3D rendering in the application. Done right, the models blend in with the surrounding aerial photography and look excellent viewed at all angles.
This KML allows users to view Canary Island Spatial Data Infrastructure geographic data. It uses a server side KML to WMS translator that maps user coordinates space in standard WMS requests. Main features are: continuous user view refresh (not only on view stop), works fine with high tilt camera angles (standard GE WMS support don’t work propertly), use Canary Islands SDI cache technology for ...
Located at top the Corcovado Mountain at a height of 710 meters, the statue of Christ the Redeemer is certainly one of the world's best-known and most-visited monuments. This outing begins in the Cosme Velho District, aboard a miniature train that runs through the steep Atlantic Rainforest up to the foot of the statue, offering stunning...
Wolf, the highest volcano of the Galápagos Islands, straddles the equator at the north end of the archipelago's largest island, Isabela. The 1710-m-high Volcán Wolf has steeper slopes than most other Isabela volcanoes, reaching angles up to 35 degrees. A 6 x 7 km caldera, at 700 m one of the deepest of the Galápagos Islands, is located at the volcano's summit. A prominent bench on the west side...
XVth century castle, it was built by François d' Aydie by 1550.
Having "supernaturally" escaped the religious wars, the Sling(Revolt) and the Revolution, then the restorations of modern era, this castle is one of the Renaissance houses the most authentic of Perigord. It hesitates between the austerity of the military architecture (moats, covered way, arrow slits, crenel...

It is located at 40°57′28″N, 100°17′30″E. It was founded in 1958, maki...
CRASH has been active in research in the so called Randstad Region (the area in western Netherlands comprising the three large cities Rotterdam, Den Haag and Amsterdam and their environment) since 1987 where it has its main operating area. In this region approximately 750 aircraft were downed during the Second World War. In these twenty years of its activities the foundation focuses mainly on ‘...
In 1648, the Treaty of Westphalia gave France possession of Breisach, on the right bank of the Rhine. This town was fortified by Vauban under the orders of Louis XIV and gave France an important bridgehead on the right bank of the Rhine. Breisach flourished, and so many people came to the town that it spread onto an island in the river, named Ville Neuve (new town). A fort was also built on thi...
Cobra Mist was part of an over the horizon radar system used to monitor Soviet (and possibly Chinese) activities during the late 1960s and early 1970s. The system had noise problems and was decommissioned in 1973. The BBC World Service now transmits from the site.
Even if we entertain the notion that no extraterrestrial spacecraft is concealed at Orford Ness, the area is still of...
