Crash of the Airbus A310

Google Earth Tour of Airbus A310

French news site 20minutes.fr has created a Google Earth tour of the flight of Airbus A310 which crashed in the Indian Ocean on Tuesday. The tour uses Google's embedded tour player which means that it is possible to embed the tour in any website or blog.

There were 66 French nationals on board the plane, which was flying from the Yemeni capital Sanaa to the Comoros, and the French transport ministry say the plane which crashed had been banned from France because of "irregularities". 20minutes.fr have asked readers to respond to the appropriateness of showing the plane's last flight by leaving a comment on their blog.

Just a quick correction: 20minutes.fr is not a blog but is a news site.
