Joris Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 Google earth now has the whole of germany sharp and in 3D, you can now see the eagles nest in 3D! (okay, the mountain). Not to mention the Berghof: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jessie The Jeep Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 I got caught with my B-17 at RAF Coltishall in 2003. I've only been there three times in my life, and only once with the B-17. I think it is towards the end of the day, the sun is in the West casting long shadows, and I think the outer wing panels have been removed from the B-17 as I start to dismantle it. I used the Google measurement tool on the trailer width, length and B-17 length, and they all match spot on! I found my house too and realised I left the wheelie bin on the end of the drive!!

ArtistsRifles Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 Maps aren't too up to date in some areas though :cry: This is home: The area inside the yellow triangle is ours. The large white object on the drive is, as labelled, our old 1993 Abbey Oxford GT caravan. Immediately south of that is my old Saab 900 Carlsson - West of the Carlsson is a Saaab 95 and South of the carlsson is the old LWB series 2A LandRover we used to use as a tow car. taken all together they put the age of this photo at around no earlier than Dec 199 and no later than Oct 2001 - we bought the Carlsson and the caravan in Q3 1999 andswapped the landrover for a Citroen in 2001. Caravan was swapped for a new Abbey GTS in 2003 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirhc Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 You can just about fit an FV622 in that space.. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArtistsRifles Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 I thought of that - just a few major problems though: 1) The wife would likely kill me! 2) With an RM8 postcode getting insurance would be almost impossible 3) The drive would need to be ripped up and relaid with SUBSTANTIALLY deeper foundations ( you should see the indentations a Pajero left over 3 the space of three years....)

Joris Posted March 28, 2006 Author Share Posted March 28, 2006 Holland still is only availble in low-res photo's so I can't show you my house. Let's hope they'll fix that soon. But it must be cool to see your house in Google Earth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
