Sometimes when checking out prospective walks on google earth i find curious things, here is an air craft passing over the nattai. Any one found odd stuff?

There are so interesting things that pop up on google earth!

Here's a link to a feature in the Royal National Park that was seen by someone on the forum whilst exploring satellite images.

Jackhinde,

I found a similar aircraft shadow over Nattai some years back. Not really surprised as Nattai NP is under the flight path for Mascot.

Although I think it disappeared after the last image updates I'll have a look and see if I can find it again.


Michael.
