I don't know if anyone has posted this before, but at least I can for the newer forum members. It provides old time aerial photos of the landscape. I have been staring at these photos for the last 2 hours. The local park I hit that used to be a produce auction, I found where it used to sit exactly. Absolutely awesome. And the farmhouse I mentioned in another post here, found that too. What an invaluable resource for poeple in this hobby...

Yep have not found anything on my area at all. Worthless site for a good portion of us, glad some of the new england people can use it.

Yea..Guess I should re-phrase that. Didnt realize it was so limited for most people. "Awesome sight (for very few of us)"....

Very cool... Looked up where I used to work, before they closed the
doors and shifted operations to the sun belt and Mexico... |

You mean they actually had planes back then?
![]() Mine only goes back to 55, which isn't too bad. Would have been nice If it went back further, but then again its terrific its available at all. I must say though the picture quality isn't that great.I think "Goose" had a better picture of the Mig 28 even though they were inverted ! |

Jersey Digger, thanks for the site! I grew up in Gloucester County not far from you in Glassboro. Pics of my old house site show it as an orchard/farm in 1920. That explains the old spoons I used to find digging in the backyard when I was little. Anyway, just spent about 2 hours looking at views of my local areas as far back as the 20's and 30's. Really cool and will definitely be helpful.
