Google Earth is a seperate program that you can download for free.  After downloading and installing it you can find any spot you want.  Resolution is great for populated areas of the US.  Out in the boonies it is not as good, but because you are using a big area even low resolution, even bases in the boonies work fine.

BTW, I found I am not quite done!  I forgot I am still working on the nameplate.  Printed the decal for it, but it must dry a few more days before I can seal the decal and apply it.  I apply the decal to a strip of K&S brass.

Looks great, Don.  The airfield base is a great idea.

What everyone else has said ... you're thinking creatively and out of the box. Well done!
