No, it's exactly the same picture with a better resolution. Smoke is cloud shadow and fire a white thing with sun flare.

Still there on Yahoo maps

5000th post ! BRAVO !

Are you sure ? RWE Dea AG logo is a hand.

Perhaps an old one...

Probabely a Gulfstream

It's the "L 9892 SAN GIORGIO"
http://www.marina.difesa.it/unita/sangiorgio.htm

Any better sources for the crashes ? Could it really be the same airship in Germany and in California ?

The same 6 month later :
"Accident occurred Wednesday, June 29, 2001 in SAN BERNADINO, CA
Aircraft: Worldwide Aero Corp AEROS-41B, registration: N820AC
Injuries: 2 Fatal, 3 Uninjured."

And this time, I'm not...

I found this :
http://www.modern-airships.info/de/aeros/commerzbank.html
You can read on the 7th picture than it's an "Aeros 40B Skydragon" and not a 41B

Accident occurred Threeesday, January 1, 2002 in Oakland, CA
Aircraft: Worldwide Aeros 41B, registration: N820AC
Injuries: 3 Uninjured.
On January 10, 2002, at 1331 hours Pacific standard time, a Worldwide Aeros 41B airship, N820AC, encountered aircraft control problems while attempting to land at the Metropolitan Oakland International Airport, Oakland, Califivenia. The airship landed hard, skidded across a taxiway, and struck a parked airplane. After the pilots abandoned...

You're right; it's not a ship, but that's a strange place for a drylock.

JB, your message is poor and pointless.

The world's biggest hole. 525 meters deep.

Alas, I'd loved to found it. I found it here and couldn't resist to post it :
http://googlesightseeing.com/2006/07/25/9-possible-traffic-accidents/

Cool find.

Yes, it looks the same as this one :
http://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/21789/
333 meters too.

This one is 333 meters long.

Who will find larger than this one?

There are too many icebergs in the area to refer them all. Some measure more than 400 meters length (1310 ft).

full high res now

The same formation than this map :

Mister terrorist, if you are looking for targets, find the blured zones.
Idea for the guy in charge to use the directional blur : Copy forest, fields or little villages and past them on the supposed sensible areas. It would be aesthetically nicer and will avoid to point the area. (I want copyrights for this idea if you'll use it)

I think it's an oversight. There is two highres square gone in France (One in Normandy and one other in Britanny) One day Google trainee clicked the "erase" button and they disappeared.

Gone!

Good catch, old fisherman

Wow ! Apparently you're right. What else ?

I mean... the base's still there, but not the planes

No Longer There

Problem : How to change the country of this map every 6 months ? (Don't know when exactly.) Perhaps the first map with 2 countries ?
The "international waters" category is not appropriate.

Duplicate of the "http://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/14897/"

"Hassan II Mosque in Casablanca" is the right title

Thanks to change the title for :
"Sud Aviation Vautour at the Safran museum"
And change the category as "Airplanes - Military - Static Display - Bombers"

Good job, Gosell

Now in high res

It's the "Symbolic globe" sculpture by Erik Reitzel, Denmark

In the news today.
MOSCOW, Russia (CNN) -- A Sibir Airlines passenger jet with 200 people on board veered off the runway early Sunday while landing at Irkutsk Airport in eastern Siberia, crashed into a concrete barrier and burst into flames, killing at least 124 people, according to the Russian Ministry of Emergency Situations.

Look like the Learjet 60 XR.

Strange. The highrez map is not anymore available for this area.

Football worldcup final here this evening (09/07/2006). Could be 'in the News" category.

According to the Google translator :
广州 = Guangzhou (the city)
爱机 = Love Machine ??

Ok. It's the Guangzhou Love Machines factory.
Better translation anyone ?

Cool.
Look the shadows. Lowrez on the morning and Highrez on the evening.
6 hours separates the two pictures. (If you admit it's the same day)

Great one ! Bravo.

Nice one !

ok ok ok

How do you do to select 3 categories ? Only 2 are allowed...

It's the model aircraft airfield of Épinay-sur-Orge (and not Ballainvilliers) of the club named "Club des Mouettes" (Gulls club)
http://clubdesmouettes.free.fr/spip/

École Supérieure Navale de Tamentfoust (ESNT)

And why not just hedges of trees for separate fields ?

Ok ok. I'm going to watch the "Tour de Fance".

:)

Promote sports is a political choice. For example yesterday, France team won a footbal match on the World cup. Today in the news 45 mn about that. And nothing about the rest of the World and the real news.

What does the "airplanes in flight" category do for society?

It's not the same thing. If you want to post another stadium you can post this one with another thumbnail and the title "Stade Jean Bouin".
I prefer the "Writing" category than the "stadium" one. (You know, bored rounded buildings with grass in the middle for people who want to run after balls)

You're right, it's probably false smoke for exercise. They need a little more smoke to conceal something. I've seen an black smoke close to this area (I've lost the location).
Have you noticed how the city of Grozny is totally destroyed ? A lot of civilian building are demolished. This view can help you to understand how the Chechnya war is violent for Chechens.

Ok. You're right. It's the port of Tamentfoust. La Pérouse is the old name. I've checked an old french colonial map. Sorry.
Thanks to change the name.

Perhaps the MI-6 ("Hook")

It's the port of "La Pérouse" near the Cap Matifou.

http://www.bahdja.com/photos/displayimage.php?album=1&pos=79

:)

Wow! I won a trip to all the places i've posted.
Thanks virtualglobetrotting. :)

Look like the Mi-24, but wiki said : Length: 57 ft 4 in (17.5 m)
But the Google measurement tool said : 90 ft (27.5 m)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mil_Mi-24

Any idea ?

There is at least three more vehicles in fire around the Grosny military airport.

Come back in january, you'll see.

2 km to the north of the last coordinates is the right place, now in high res. It's huge !

Yes the thumbnail should have the Google Earth icon on it. Or Add a new Thumbnail category for Google Earth only...

The lake is so large that the old thumbnail is better than an half high res and half low res new thumbnail... No ?

Look, a little on the north, just under the plane... Is that a missile ?

But as long as you call Germany for Deutschland, Spain for España, you can call it soccer.

All over the world, this is called football. Football, because play with hands is not allowed. And your football, with rules close to the rugby, is called american Football.

http://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/18828/

Nice one !

And this one ?
http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&t=k&q=Netherlands&ie=UTF8&om=1&ll=52.056863,4.201482&spn=0.001311,0.002602

Probablely caused by glasshouse rooftop.

I've thinking that the "Transportation - Automotive" category, was the good category for road related things. When the men at work build roads, roads are building. Am I wrong ?
And sorry for the extra H. All my post for this town have a shampoo name.

No, just a roadsign lying down.

I have a different method than yours :
F({U√(β),β < α}ʁɠ254∛ + 2 = 25/03/2005

Or : Just looking for the date of the giant seal operation

Sorry, 25 march 2005

11 march 2005

I think that's the Badaling part of the wall.

The Manjung Power plant

The link is based on the following nasa picture :

But if you follow the vertical line with Google Earth, it's a road.
Would Nasa be mistaken?

It's an highway.

Thanks. I changed the GE prefs into degrees.

I'm sorry the post are now to difficult.
The Coordonates are : 14° 41'22.15"S 75°06'58.17"W

It's not the same than -14.412218,-75.065817 ?

If anyone knows a website with all the aircrafts shapes in pictures, it will be helpfull.

Thank you !

Nice one ! It's the Tortuga Island in Galapagos islands

They are the Sainte-Assise antennas of Radio-France

I think you're right. (even if I can't see any cockpit)

Not exactly the same tail.

I'm not a specialist. I've just tried to identifiing the planes with the Ferté-Alais museum pictures... If you're sure, you can change the title of the posts.

Brétigny-sur-Orge is a flight test center. They are perhaps prototypes.

Nobody play football except americans. In all the other place in the World, this game is called "american Football" and soccer is just called "Football".

Nice one.

In fact, they are ponds near the water purification plant.

The red one is the Thalys, the TGV between Paris and Brussels.
