Hi
How do I create a background image from Google Earth or similar?
Is there a program that makes it a one-click option?
TIA

Hello
John Stinstrom has done a tutorial about this some times ago (for FS2004). It's a PDF or a DOC file. I don't remember if it is available anyware, but I've it on a backup directory. It's a 13Mo file.
If you want it, send me a MP with you email adress.
Regards

If still up to date:
I use for all my air bases the tool "FSEarthtiles" which make the ground photoreal.
You can get it here:

I would recommend to have a look at the tutorials to settle in the programmes behaviour. You can have a look at here:
I am very satisfied with the results:
