Many of you will have encountered the Google Earth pixel fairy. That's the one with the warped sense of humour who just loves slapping her paint brush over images of military airports.

If you do encounter such shameful behaviour, fear not.

Try this site as a back-up

Same idea as GE - but no nasty pixel fairies. :lol:

Not to mention, they're using Bing maps imagery which, at least in some locations, is more recent that Google Earth. Just need the measuring tool from GE, and I'm good to go :D
