Interesting stuff. Here's another secret I just found on the PC Pro website(apologies to those who already know of this!!)

Bloggers have discovered a secret flight simulator in the latest version of Google Earth.
Whilst lacking the sophistication of Microsoft Flight Simulator, the hidden feature allows users to fly over the Google Earth landscape, complete with in-depth satellite photography of the ground below.

The feature is officially unlocked by pressing Crtl+Alt+A from within Google Earth, although in our test, we had to substitute Alt for the Windows key to get the simulation to start.
