Jim Gusek gave a commanding demonstration on a fundraiser that will make you feel like you have been lifted off of your feet. The idea is to set up classes to teach people how to use Google Earth’s free flight simulator – the Denver Chapter has the blessing of Google Earth to do this. The simulator takes Google Earth imagery and makes it 3D. This is as close to the real thing as you can get. The short demonstration that Jim gave at the December general meeting showed taking off from the Eagle County Airport and landing with a dead engine ala “Miracle on the Hudson”. He is currently looking for volunteers to help teach this to other people and to stage “Cyber-Space Air Races”. To get involved in the fundraiser, you can click here or talk to him at the next general meeting. We cannot get this fundraiser off the ground without you.
This fundraiser idea has been announced in YOURHUB.COM.
