The whole idea is for the map to be collaborative, so if you have a
thermal location or landing strip or glider ops area that isn't
marked, go ahead and add it! You may need to click on the "edit"
button in the information column to the left of the map, in order to
see the editing tools show up at the top of the map.

Noel,

I'm a little slow on this sort of thing, but I think I've added
Crystal to the map. At least it is now on the map I see in
Google Maps. I hope I did this properly. Thank you again
for providing this very useful tool.

This is pretty slick. It may help those of us in Region 11 when
flying south formulate a plan for long straight outs or long out and
returns in the right conditions. Speaking of which, anybody know if
there is something similar for Region 11? If not let's get one going.
