Hello All,

Further to my last. I have now downloaded the latest beta version of  
GE and everything works as advertised.

I don't like the way GE flies to and stops on the location as it is  
invariable an oblique view with North at the bottom. I would prefer  
an overhead view with north , conventionally, at the top. Maybe I can  
fix that in preferences.
