There is an add-on (named PS1_Earth) that do just that (connects PS1 to Google Earth).
Unfortunately I can't find a link to it so you will have to wait for Martin (who made it) to give it to you.

Cheers,

Thanks for the quick reply!

It seems, that unfortunately i can not find any working downloadlinks to "PS1_earth"?
Has anybody an idea, if there is a still working source yet where to get it?

Thanks again.
Best Regards

Hello,

uuuh, that is ancient history already (in Internet time); archives have been archived, web sites have been changed etc. etc.

So PS1_Earth is currently not online indeed, but I will gladly make it (and the doc.s) available again.

Just give me a little time please, and watch this space (thread). Should be revived during the weekend at the latest (I hope).

In the meantime be advised that you will need the stand-alone ("desktop") variant of Google Earth (as opposed to the web browser plug-in).
This may nowadays be a bit of an issue, as GE development and support have shifted their focus to the plug-in more or less entirely. I don't even know if/where the stand-alone GE is still available at all.

Cheers,
Martin

I have better solution.
I formatted my old XP computer few months ago (so no PS1 anymore) but then I remembered I do have backups of everything (even several times) so I looked for the latest PS1_Earth zip file and found it.
So Rioflo you can find it here.

You will also need Jeroen's MCDU and you can find this one here.

Please tell me when you downloaded PS1_Earth because I want to remove it from where it is.

Cheers,

Thanks so much for the kind help and uploading the file!
I have downloaded the file, so that you can remove it again (as you mentioned Avi).

thanks again for your suport AVI and Martin!

Cheers
