Default Flight Planing & Street Addresses


I entered my address into Yahoo maps and it was off by 12 houses. I would
suggest printing a satellite map and ask him to show you his house. That

way he
know what his house will look like for the air. Most people have a hard

time
id'ing there house from the air.


Good point. I got a similar result on mine and a couple of others as well.
To their credit. they did show houses on the correct streets.

However, using an admittedly older os, yahoo is currently the only service
that seems to give me a lat-lon from an address.

Peter
