Non-Kolb related, but aircraft related, and kind of unique.
A friend sent me a link to an interesting aircraft-related web site that
might be of interest.
It is out of Hungary, and show aircraft accidents and incidents
displayed on a US map.
It also shows earthquakes, biohazard, nuclear and other notable
events/incidents.
If you mouse over the accident/incident icon, it shows (amidst the
Hungarian) the aircraft type.
If you scroll down the page and click on the blue-colored links within
the aircraft accident/incident section, it takes you to the FAA
preliminary report.
Which have a link to Google Earth, which if you click on it, shows a
satellite picture of the accident area.
One caveat: Microsoft Internet Explorer does not work right when you
click on the link to the FAA site, however, Mozilla Firefox works
perfectly. (Not surprising)
Here is the link:
