So I decided to go back and watch some Fawlty Towers. Since I can't be satisfied with one form of visual stimulus at once I decided to browse the Fawlty Towers entry on Wikipedia

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fawlty_towers

Which then led to the page about the country club used for it's exterior shots,

Clicking on the coordinates link led to a pleasant surprise.

There's a plane in the picture ... but zoom in on the plane to read it's label for a large dose of randomness and hilarity.

What are the odds?

Best show ever was when Basil gave his car a good thrashing with a big stick!

Google Earth is far too awesome.

Basil's wife was such a c word.

Wow. You can read that it's an air canada flight.

Never seen a plane in a google satellite image before. Cool!

Wanting to see more of them, look what I stumbled onto over La Guardia airport.

For more Google fun, interesting Streetview picks.
