Flying with Google Earth
This tip was provided by RodSmith
If you have some time on your hands — and Google Earth version 4.2 or later — you can have a bit of fun by uncovering an easter egg. (An easter egg is an ability of the software that is hidden until you know a secret code.)
1.Open Google Earth
2.Press Ctrl+Alt+A (or Command+Option+A in OS X) to open up a flight simulator
3.Page Up and Page Down will increase or decrease the speed
4.Use the arrows for navigating
There are quite a few other keyboard shortcuts for controlling the flight simulator. and it also supports a joystick.
After the first time you use the flight simulator, the feature will then appear in the Tools menu.
Don’t get caught using this at work!

I don't know if you are serious or just being normal. I doubt that it will work on your iPhone. LOL anyway.

Personally, I really appreciate Scotta's wit and humor. I think he adds a lot to this forum. He has the vocabulary and thought process of at least 5 normal (or abnormal) people and being a UT Grad, his head is also larger than usual.
However, other members have to help me keep Scotta's feet on the ground so he will not accidentally hurt one of us, or himself. LOL
