2. Once you have GE running, enter the special secret key commands: Ctrl+Alt+A
3. You'll see this screen where you can choose between an F16 or SR22. You can also choose to take-off from an airport around the world or from your current location in Google Earth:
   

4. Before you take off, check out the list of controls HERE.
5. Using a joystick is better but you can still fly around with just a keyboard and mouse.
6. Enjoy!
