| Gosell | 2009-08-28 08:39:30 | Loch Ness Monster?? | That's clearly about a 40 ft boat. But, is that Nessie hiding underneath to avoid being seen by satellites, or was this taken at the moment she surged over the boat's transom Jaws style to grab the... |
| Gosell | 2009-05-14 14:44:05 | TRW auto test track on frozen lake | Interesting location for a supposedly American company. Deep in Mancuria and less than a mile from the Russian border and close to a spur of the Trans Siberian RR...although there is no apparent... |

| Gosell | 2009-03-21 17:02:07 | Cut & Paste Sailboat | Why are the Dutch so secretive? Do you think they are hiding the massive fleet they are going to use to take over the world? LOL |
| Gosell | 2009-03-21 16:56:51 | Chinese SWATH Military? Catamarans | Thanks. I think you nailed it. I didn't have enough time to get serious with the research. |
| Gosell | 2009-03-18 18:05:09 | Airliner fuselage on a rail car | Most of this seems to be Spirit Aerosystem, a major Boeing subcontractor that makes 737 fuselages and other assemblies. ... |
| Gosell | 2009-03-05 17:47:26 | Kitzingen AAF (Harvey Barracks) (US Army Airfield) | I believe that Kitzigen is in Bavaria in southern Germany. The airport shown would have been in the former East Germany. |
| Gosell | 2009-02-19 15:08:44 | MillsNagurskoye base | The map copied at the wrong zoom. Zoom in to view. |
| Gosell | 2009-02-19 14:33:45 | Plane Crashed in Antarctica | This is a really sharp find. The plane looks pretty intact to have had accident-related fatalities. There are at least 5 other wrecked aircraft about 1/2 mile SSW. |

| Gosell | 2008-08-24 20:40:16 | Four private jet fighters | I'm pretty sure that's Hawker Hunter, not a Gnat. |
| Gosell | 2008-02-25 18:57:23 | Whales | That's nearly 200 ft long. Several whales nose to tail? ...or some small boats rafted up?
Whatever it is, that's a cool find a long way from land. |
| Gosell | 2008-02-02 10:12:55 | Myasishchev VM-T Heavy lift aircraft | I don't have muchtime for this any more. I think this must be in a new high-res zone...Google Earth had 'i' s all over this airport. ...including the VM-T. i got there after seeing a U-Tube video... |
| Gosell | 2008-02-01 21:10:09 | Longest runway in the world | The Zhukovski Russian air base SE of Moscow seems to have a 17,600 ft runway, as measured by Google earth.
55.55718500~38.12449000 |
| Gosell | 2007-06-03 20:02:23 | Mirny Antarctic Polar Station | These are great finds. I find it interesting that the roof of one building still says CCCP (USSR). |

| Gosell | 2007-03-26 18:30:38 | Hulk of an old battleship | I think this may be a cable laying ship. The round wells are where they stored the cable. It has about the same LOA and Beam as the one shown in this link.
There also appears to be... |
| Gosell | 2007-03-09 18:40:37 | Junked Helicopters | They are Sikorsky CH-37s. with a few CH-34s in the back row. In 1970 there were several of these at Coleman AAF in Manheim, Germany. I was there for 14 months and saw one fly. The CH-37 was the... |

| Gosell | 2007-02-17 20:28:31 | Small sub ? | I measured it on google earth, 12 ft beam and 95-100 ft long, unless that is a small zodiac tied to the stern and then it's about 80-85 LOA. Still, that's pretty skinny. There's a faint shadow of a... |
| Gosell | 2006-11-23 15:52:09 | Big Helicopter in Colemann air base | It's a CH-47 Chinnok. There are a few UH-60 Black hawks nearby with external fuel tanks--Special ops perhaps. I was stationed at Coleman Army Airfield in 1970-71, fixing avionics on OH-13s, CH-34s... |

| Gosell | 2006-10-14 22:18:03 | Grumman S2F Tracker at Glendale Municipal | I think it is a Grumman S2F Tracker. The wings, engine nacalles and tail are similar to the B-26, but the short stubby nose is clearly a Tracker. I used to see these all the time over Long Island... |
| Gosell | 2006-10-12 19:36:24 | Censored | The Dutch have a lot of map blotching. There is a different kind of blurring I've seen in several places. Last year I remember seeing a pretty clear U2 on this airport on Long Island NY. Now it is... |

| Gosell | 2006-09-06 20:38:49 | Convair 990 | The plane just south of the 990 appears to be a De Havilland of Canada, DHC-4 Caribou. Got to ride in these several times in the Army. |

| Gosell | 2006-08-07 21:23:52 | Runway disappears underground | At first I thought it was a ghost shift. But you are right about the details that match up. I'm guessing the showing runways on the right were built after the area on the left was photographed. |
| Gosell | 2006-07-18 18:49:37 | P3-C Orion at Atsugi Naval Air Base | I think the AC at the bottom of the thumbnail facing NNW is a ShinMaywa US-1 amphibian. It has a high wing, skinny body and T tail. An interesting plane.
