So, just about 4 years ago I took a Viking on an out & in to San Antonio for lunch with some family. We were on deck there for about 2 hours and good times were had by all. Fast forward 4 years and while on the phone tonight and bored I was surfing Google earth and found this @ N29 31 19.35 W098 28 00.39

I checked the pictures taken that day by my family, and the other planes in the background match as do the cars in the area. I guess they can get you anywhere!

"JFK Terrorists Used Google Earth To Plan Plot"
Google earth back in the news...

While useful to those who mean no harm, Google Earth has been a real thorn in the side of officials looking to keep us safe. Numerous countries have complained about the sensitive areas detailed on Google's satellite imagery.

In some cases, like with the White House, Google has been obliged to block out images. It may be time for Google to take a serious look at what can be found via its Earth program, and consider removing or blocking views of airports, oil refineries, or other targets.
