Looking for a great circle planning website
 
Hey all,

Does anybody know where a good website exists that can plot a great circle line from 2 chosen city pairs, maybe overlaying google earth.

Cheers

You could try this one:- Great Circle Mapper

Not sure if you can overlay it onto google earth though!

hey there,

thanks. I have tried this one but i cant seem to overlay it on google plus the display is not very big or accurate

Google Earth...
 
You can just use the ruler in Google Earth itself. Either use line mode for the great circle line between two points, or use path mode if you fancy some more points.

edit: add -> path might help too

Hi

GPS Visualizer: Great Circle Distance Maps, Airport Routes, & Degrees/Minutes/Seconds Calculator

I use this site alot. Itīs brilliant. You can make a great circle line between airports and even range rings and export it onto Google Maps, or into a file to open with Google Earth.

Hope this helps!
