Default Google Earth for in flight Planning?


I particularly like it for visualizing how the 45 and the downwind leg
will work out in practice, or even entering on the base leg.

Sometimes when I see something that puzzles me during a flight, I can
"re-fly" the afternoon on Google Earth and zoom in on the mystery
house/whatever.
