And just for fun, if anyone finds themselves in Austria any time soon, might be worth your time to take a drive down this road...

48 03'59.5"N 12 51'57.46"E

  Um, and you are looking at...?  Perhaps I'm just not squinting enough.

When you are checking out that road in Austria, be sure to have the roads display box checked on... Viewer discretion is advised.

Here is another interesting coordinate, not really a navy site but it is the Bone Yard in Tucson, Arizona.
32 09' 29"N  110 50' 07"W

Wow!  Fly a few dozen 500 trade guys/gals down with a U-Haul truck and some tools and we could rebuild all of our Hercs.

 

[Blatchman]

Is this a typhoon?

64°34'8.26"N  39°46'12.73"E

That definitely is a typhoon, the length is right, covering over the props is correct, the shadow of the tail fin appears to be the proper height and the position of the conn tower is correct.

Lloks like most have been stripped already, there is also a flying boxcar, DC-3, skyhawks and Canberras there

Google Earth is good stuff!

How many places in the world do you actually see an alert fighter on the runway?

24° 0'43.82"N  121°36'38.41"E

I don't know navy so well, so can someone explain what the underwater rectangles are in this one?

Oyster Beds?

How about these in Nevada for the dry land sailor or the largest CD's in the world:

39°57'24.84"N  117°25'26.75"W

 

[armyvern]

I'm with you George, that was my initial thought too. Oyster farm.
