Hi Gang
How does one use Google Earth satellite maps with IGC files? I thought I knew how but I don't. Thanks.

If you mean display an IGC trace in google earth, try here:
http://www.gpsvisualizer.com/map_input?form=googleearth
I think "GPS babel" (http://www.gpsbabel.org/) can also do this conversion if you want a stand-alone program.

Or you can replay the whole flight in Google Earth with IGC Flight Replay, see: http://ywtw.de/igcsimen.html

Hi,
In addition to nice options already posted, you can open a flight log in
SeeYou for PC and save it as a .kml file that you can open in Google Earth.
Good Soaring,
