Default Aerial Maps

I know alot of people use aerial maps now. I used to use Google Earth but most of my area was all blurry.

If you want free, clear, maps that have everywhere shown- use Weather.com

Just type in your area and with theirnewradar you can zoom in and get the same images as GoogleEarth except for the spots on GoogleEarththat are blurred, they are clear on Weather.com.

Anyways, don't know how much help this will be, but it's useful for me.

Possible- never heard of flashearth though. Ive always used GoogleEarth and always got upset because almost all of where I hunt was always blurred out. Now none of it is blurred with Weather.com.

I thought it was cool.

The radar map on weather.com and flashearth.com both use Microsoft VE software. They are the same thing.

I like flasheath better because you can view it on your whole screen and not in a little box like weather.com

just click you mouse in on the area you want to go to and zoom in (with the mouse wheel is the easiest) and click on aerial or hybrid

no need to type anything
