Google Earth Flight Simulator

Google Earth Integrates Flight Simulator

Google have included what is known as an “Easter egg” (a “hidden” facility in the application) within Google earth. The flight simulator can be accessed by getting a download of the latest version of Google earth and then holding down the “ctrl” “alt” and “a” key simultaneously.

It is not clear whether the flight simulator is available on all versions of Google earth or whether you need Google earth pro or Google earth plus versions. I got a download of the most recent version and couldn’t get t to work… if anyone unearths (excuse the pun) how to do this please let me know.

Anyway looks pretty cool addition to the standard functions (map, zoom etc.) that are available. Check it out on youtube here: google earth flight simulator
