Hi Daniel,

I have a Tosihiba Pocket PC with a GPS CF Card. With the Pocket Earth application I can track the aircraft across the globe with heading, altitude and speed details. You can usually pickup 4 satellites but crew do not normally like to see you using GPS type devices.

For the potograph above where I identified the airfield, it was pure luck. I knew we were near Alice Springs when I took the photograph, so I just looked around in Google Earth and found the location.
