Wow! I'd never heard of Google Earth, and just tried it out. Amazing.

| There is another global map out there "World Wind" from NASA. I don't have
URL but if you Goggle, I am sure it is there.

While scanning KJFK some more, it looks like they had an incident when
they got caught by the satellite camera ;-)
It looks as if a jet overran the runway on 4R! Looking at the shadow,
he's definitely not flying (as if taking off)!!
He's stuck at 40 38' 44.33" N 73 45' 16.76" W
There are lots of vehicles parked nearby.
I can't quite make out what that white stuff is that's coming off the
left wing - smoke?? Foam?? But everybody seems to be keeping their
distance from the aircraft.
Curious ...
