Fly Garmin route on Google Earth

[Mike Murphy]

I POSTED THIS UNDER ANOTHER THREAD BUT OTHERS MAY FIND IT USEFULL
Very easy to transfer Mapsource route onto Google earth, once you have completed your route in mapsource. Left Click on ‘VIEW’ from the top banners, scroll down Left Click ‘View in Google Earth’ GE will automatically open showing your route (assuming you have it installed).

Now if you want is to fly the route. The file comes in under ‘PLACES’ left hand Column as a Temporary Place called ‘Mapsource’
Double click on Mapsource
Double Click on Route, The route appears with THREE dot symbol (pink)
Selecy your route by left Clicking on it once
At the bottom right of you can see another three dots (this time blue)
Click on thes to FLY YOUR ROUTE and away you go !!!!!!!!!!!
You can play around with the speed and settings etc as you wish

I find this view in GE very useful when creating waypoints for things such as hotels as you can physically look to ensure it is in the right place.
