ok i have just tried and tested this, if you have the latest version of google earth (v4 the one with the stars).

press

ctrl + alt + A (has to be capital A) this will open it up you get a choice of 2 aircraft… what a winner…

I have 4.0.2737 and it doesn’t work for me.
I assume you mean Ctrl + Alt + Shift+A or caps lock on and Ctrl + Alt + A?
Neither work.

Lower case A does nothing either.

Which version of Earth are you running?

3

I also have 4.0.2742, which also doesn’t do it.

4

i had that problem you have to zoom into the earth a bit closer then click on it somewhere then hit the buttons with capslock on

5

it does work, you just have to play with the combinations until you get in, so far I’ve been getting in with luck…

try thinks lit

pressing ctrl then alt then A

or alt the ctrl then A

or A ctrl alt

you get the idea and as long as you have the version with the star’s thing it will work…

Just tried it and mine worked, took a couple of goes though but it worked :slight_smile:

I put caps lock on and then did the Ctrl+Alt/A

Thanks for that, my daughter and I love playing with google earth, visiting places we have been in the world, looking a friends homes and finding landmarks.

Cheers! :smiley:
