My Flight Blog: Google Maps and Flight Tracking by fboweb.com

My Flight Blog: Google Maps and Flight Tracking by fboweb.com: "you will be see an icon to map the flight on Google Earth and to see a 3D rendering of the flight plan with relevant information such as flight number, altitude and air speed. Even more fun is that they offer Google Earth add-ons that show traffic going to some of the country's most popular airports including: Los Angeles, Boston, Chicago's O'Hare, Atlanta and New York's John F. Kennedy. Download the files for these airports for use in Google Maps.

Once you load the map, be sure to zoom in towards each airport and tilt the camera up from the runways to watch them land! The picture to the right is showing the flights coming in over Lake Michigan landing on 27L and 27R.

If you are an aviation buff download Google Earth and head over to fboweb.com today."
