People often wonder how accurate the GPS track on the plane is. I find it's very good. Keep in mind you can see very far from the plane...
Here's a shot of a lake. Thanks to Google Earth and Yahoo Maps, I now know that it's West Grand Lake in Maine, with my field of view towards the south-southeast. The two most prominent islands are Hardwood Island and Marks Island. (Err, for those of you not familiar with Maine in December, that's ice on the lake, with big cracks in the ice).
Photos were geocoded with RoboGEO, using data from my Qstarz BT-Q1000.
