Google earth & 3D Airspace

[topcat450]

In Pilot mag last month they mentioned a link to a site which superimposed 3D airspace images onto google earth.

Pretty handy for help turning the 2D paper chart into a 3D image in your head - providing it works. (the software...not your head!)

Does anyone have the link to it please?

Ta in advance,

Here is another link with Live flights in the US, plus airspace.

You get somewhat bizarre results though.

For example, round Cambridge the most notable feature is the laser site over West Cambridge ... which is not something the (daytime) pilot ever thinks about, or needs to.

There is no way that the airspace depictions on something like this are going to be correct, especially long-term - unless Google pay somebody to obtain/purchase every AIP for the whole world and spend their life wading through the stuff and updating the database... That's what people like Jepp and Navbox do, but nobody else is likely to do it.

Except possibly for the USA, where the database might be available. I know the charts are freely available as images.
