Google Earth and WW2 Aircraft wrecks

[Tony Kambic]

After re-reading a book I have on the Ploesti raid, it was interesting looking over the refinery area. On Google Maps, look at Rhein-Main and spot the 3 Lufthansa 747's in a fly-over.

Chris,
Nice pictures, but do you think it might be three pictures of the same aircraft? All three pilots plus the ground controllers would have gone to jail for allowing three passenger aircraft that close togetter at that height over a populated area.

Regards,

Good point. I never thought of framing sequence. I don't know the technology of how Google captures them. Many other aerials of airports I have viewed with aircraft in a pattern have never exhibited that.
