This is a very interesting feature of the Google Earth. Through which one can not just take a 3D flight above all kinds of geographical places, but also can record his flight tour and later watch it.
Google Earth has this superb feature inside the tools section as Enter flight stimulator, but before actually using flight lets do something before it for proper flight effect.

• Change your 3D views settings from a rabge of lowest to highest too according to your net speed.
Now you are ready to experience the real thunders of Google Earth Flight or G.E.F.
Go into Google flight stimulator and you are there with options of choosing between F16 and SR22 planes.
Choose the one according to your liking. If you like a speedy tour take the F16 or if you are passionate of slow propelled flight take the SR22.
You may also choose your starting point. For ex. take Kathmandu airport as the starting point of the flight.
