Airplane Below

[johnnyb]

This doesn't fit "Nature" but stretching it puts it in "Environoment".
Was checking Google Earth for area we were in and found a jet was far below in 01 Jun 2011 shot from the satellite:
39 degrees 18' 24.45" N 74 degrees 52' 02.28" W by their coordinates.
There's an interesting vernal/intermittent pond to the northeast of this location, in Belleplain SF, to the north of route 548.

I think you may have found the same plane I posted about a couple months ago. Is this it?

Yes.
Hadn't seen your post when I put this in.
We'd been on a botany quest down that way when I saw the plane in the Google Earth shot.
Neat area.......

I live not far from there and used to live even closer to it. Lotta stones out there and I was checking the area out alongside of some stone maps and noticed the plane, much bigger then most of them I assume it must have been very high up and closer to the satellite to make it appear that large? I thought the satellites were about 100 miles up,in that case a few tens of thousands of feet shouldn't make much of a difference???
