Commercial jet caught in flight...

over the red rock desert in southern Utah and frozen in aerial images on Google Earth (click to enlarge). I was perusing imagery in an area northwest of Moab, planning field work for the coming spring, and this caught my eye. One can clearly see the aircraft and its contrail, as well as their respective shadows on the ground.

Apparently I'm not the first to spot various aircraft in flight in GE.

Oh yeah, that's the Slick Rock Member of the Entrada Sandstone and the overlying members of the Morrison Formation in outcrop, and some modern eolian dunes.
