[Cz-L]Virtual Sightseeing Flight Over Czernowitz

Czernowitzers...

Please visit http://ehpes.com/blog1/2010/08/05/sightseeing-flight-over-czernowitz/ and check in for a Virtual Sightseeing Flight Over Czernowitz! Jerome connected two globetrotters (Julius Großmann + Edgar Hauster), who thus became your "flight crew" on this flight.

In May/June 2010 Julius Großmann from Heidelberg in Germany made a journey through Poland, Ukraine (including Czernowitz), Moldavia, Romania, Hungary and Austria. Nothing of note? Sure! It was a BIKE RIDE: 24 stages (Czernowitz = stage no. 6 on p. 17 - 24), cycling 3,600 kilometers with 23,000 metres in altitude. Incredible!

As an additional result of his journey, Julius compiled the existing Google Earth Czernowitz map with the 1907 street map of Czernowitz, available in our map section. A new mapping experience arose from this ingenious compilation process, so the new Overlay Czernowitz 1907 Map, colorful, with wonderful 3-D effects and lots of clickable pictures is now online!

Please follow the instructions indicated in the above mentioned post and you will be able to navigate, simulating a sightseeing flight over Czernowitz. Thank you, Julius, our “flight captain”!

Enjoy your "flight"!
