Mishap caught on Google Maps

@Salty I think @WeekendWarrior may have meant that you can find images in the photos of where airliners were on approach or departure. I can't actually take credit for finding the one in my original post, it was pointed out on another feed but I thought it was fun.

Here is another one I did find when I first started gliding which shows a Grob on the ground off field near the Estrella sailport E68. Not quite sure how to embed a link to a historical spot in google (any suggestions on how to do that?). Here's the contents of the kml file:
