its pretty decent, more complicated than i had expected.
hard to find those pretty places with the 3d buildings tho, most are still just flat photos. neat gimmick.

Had a go on my mate's PC, quite good although you have to go somewhere with the 3D buildings, like a big city.

In terms of geographical accuracy, how does this compare to Microsoft's Flight simulator series? I've read a few comments that accuse google of giving too much info to would-be terrorists, but I was under the impression that MS Flight Sim was a very accurate depiction of real world geography and topograpy. Is this not the case? Would this google flight sim with dated graphics really be a superior tool with which to train hijackers? I have my doubts..

I don't think terrorists would fly planes into buildings now, they'd probably come up with another scheme, something different like that attempted shoebombing.
