Now, we need people to go to these strips and photograph them from the
ground and post the photos on Google Earth with notes.
That would be great. and it wouldn't even have to be a ground visit to
be useful. Just a pilotflying over a strip and looking down can get the
information you need, if he posts it on Google Earth.
The next step would be a "checkbox" in Justsoar, directing it to include
the comments for all the strips when you downloaded a database, so you
could see them inflight, when it really mattered. The comments would
have to be dated, so the pilot could decide how much he wants to trust them.
