Google Earth Bomber Found…

Just gotta love this. Yeah, I'm a few months slow, but hey, I do post the interesting stuff :-)

A first time poster at the Google Earth Community posted a placemark to this incredible sight of a fully restored Lancaster Bomber which just happened to be flying just about over his house (which is why he found it). According to other posters in the thread, this is the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight Avro Lancaster, normally located in the City of Lincoln, England (see website).

Hi All Experts,
Does any­one use google earth images as ground image planes for use in aer­ial scenes. I know how to stitch them together but are there any tools or tricks to make sure that the images are at the same height, angle and such to make sure they stitch well. I know in the pro ver­sion you can get big­ger images but im not going to pay for the pro ver­sion when i could stitch mul­tiple images together…
