Google Earth now have Flight Simulator

Google recently added Google SKY, you can switch the screen from the main menu. But what you don’t know is that Google made a Flight Simulator for those who likes to explore the world on a go.
To activate the flight simulator, users can type Ctrl+Alt+A (keyboard shortcut) else Command+Option+A on OS X.
Once the feature is turned-on in Google Earth menus, users can either get a F16 ‘Viper’ or SR22 plane to fly. They can select a start position with the Kathmandu runway as default option. Using the keyboard or mouse, users can control their aircraft. Even joysticks are supported, or not ?! Logitech EXtreme Pro are not supported in Mac OS. Getting the hang of controls is a bit tricky however once the plane is stabilized, users can get a nice view of say the Himalayas out on the horizon.

To re-enter flight simulator mode, users can choose Tools: Enter Flight Simulator.
