np, it's actually really simple.
q = query, input in lat/lon, address, or name format
z = zoom, a zoom level 1-20 (20 = zoomed all the way in)

All the variables can be found here:

Might not be real.........google has planted a good amount of airplanes randomly throughout the world.

World War 2 Bomber in Flight: Google Earth has the ability to snap airplanes in midair – apparently some 3,300 planes have been placemarked. This is a World War II bomber flying over the sleepy suburbs of Huntingdon, England. Unfortunately, the bomber is no longer there in the updated image of the area.

In other words........HAX

My guess is its real, this is near Shaw Air Force base in Sumter SC. And is near the bombing range they practice on daily. I hunt on land surrounding the range all the time and they practice bombing daily. Two of the dove fields we dove shoot on are nearby and we always get an air show when we are there. My best guess is its Super Hornet. They practice there along with A10's daily. If you look north of this spot you can see Shaw AF base with fighter jets in the runway. The bombing range is just a bit west if where the fighter is. Zoom out and you can see it.

Pretty sure (99.9%) its an F-16 given its single tail and fuselage... and its an AFB instead a Naval base. F-18s are Navy.


Also, hornets have twin tail fins as pictured below.

I said it was a guess ...

The distortion of the pic is kinda throwing me a bit, but I don't think it's a F16. The aft side of the wing is perpendicular to the fuselage on a 16 (same goes for stabilators), this picture doesn't show that sort of wing. To me it resembles the F4 Phantom more. The empennage looks how it should when the camera is slightly behind the jet, the wing seems to match, and the air intakes seem correct. The US doesn't fly them anymore, and there's only one civilian F4 (N749CF), however several armed forces (some of them allies) do still fly it. Maybe it was one of those in a joint training program (seems a pretty small chance though).

lol, look at the URL of that F16 image.

It's an F-16, if you look north, Shaw Air force base has a bunch of F16's on the tarmac ready to go, could be 1 of those.

Its an F-16.
