Google Earth 2007 Version -

The Google Earth of 2007 was not just a map; it was a playground. Several features introduced or popularized during this era defined the user experience.

Perhaps the most beloved Easter egg of the 2007 version was the . Activated by pressing Ctrl+Alt+A (Windows) or Command+Option+A (Mac), the Earth turned into a global runway. You could pilot an F-16 Fighting Falcon or a Cirrus SR-22, flying over real satellite terrain. The physics were basic, but the freedom was unparalleled. Teenagers in 2007 spent countless hours "flying" from their house to the Grand Canyon. (Note: The 2007 version lacked the "Joystick" configuration menu that came later; you used the mouse or keyboard arrows.) google earth 2007 version
