The tool itself isn't aviation related, but the location covered by this link is.

Check out the bird's eye view function, along with rotating camera. Pretty sweet functionality.

You can do Goolgleearth in browser too; just go to Google and select maps, then click on satellite. http://maps.google.com/maps?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=en&tab=wl&q=

Somehow, the mechanics of that scenario escape me. I mean, how big can a swan be?
