Default Google Earth Terrain view

I can't seem to find how to use the terrain view in Google Earth. What
I want to do is get the same view that is available on the OLC
website, but cannot seem to find out how to enable that in Google
Earth!

Any ideas or suggestions? I've read the help file and gone online for
help but to no avail.

TIA,

You can go to http://ywtw.de/igcsimen.html and get IGC Flight Replay.
When I
first got it it would automatically activate Google Earth. Now I get
a message
stating:
'The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is
unavailable.'
'Check OK to try again, or enter an alternate path to a folder
containing
the installation package 'Google Earth.msi' in box below.'

I work around this by having GE already open before opening
IGC Flight Replay. After GE appears on this application all you have
to do is
click on 'File' in the upper left hand corner, then click on "open IGC
File' and
browse for the file you want to view.

Anyone have a solution to this problem?
