They do look like airplane folds! How in the world did those survive??

Chateau the master!! CSI has NOTHING on your site evals!!

Now what are the odds that there'd be paper airplane remains right at that location?

Someone didn't clean the place up as carefully as they should have.

Only if the PA is a descendant of Rin Tin Tin

Thanks everybody! It was a lot of fun. I really can't wait to see it all go down.

I wonder if TAR18's racers will go and get Qantas tattoos now?

Here is another way to locate the start line. Here is the screencap from the promo......with the benchmark circled.

Here is close-up of the benchmark....

And here is a map of the location of that particular benchmark. The locations are recorded by the National Geodetic Survey. There are approximately 750,000 benchmarks across the United States. They are very precisely surveyed points. The information they contain is latitude, longitude and elevation above sea level.

Thanks to Texas Lady for Images 1 and 3, and to Chateau for Image 2.

I'm gonna bet CBS never thought we'd figure this one out this precisely without an eyewitness.

If they want to stop Cheteau figuring out the startline then perhaps (CBS, are you listening?) STOP HAVING THE STARTING LINE IN LA!!!

georgiapeach · « **Reply #517 on:** January 24, 2011, 09:57:48 PM »

They were in Palm Springs...so maybe not in California??

Definitely agreed! At least TAR17 mixed things up a bit!

and the magnet attracts them back to the LA area for TAR18

I think they went to LA agian, because of the ease of getting to Sydney.

That is probably true. The flight to Sydney is long enough from LAX without adding additional westward travel in the USA.

DrRox · « **Reply #521 on:** January 26, 2011, 05:31:24 PM »

As far as US departure cities with direct nonstop flights on Qantas to Sydney.......they could have also started the race in San Francisco or Honolulu, besides LA. Proximity to WRP home base also probably was a factor too in choosing LAX for departure.

Wow I haven't been to this site in a few days, you guys are absolutely amazing. In my next life I want to be a detective and figure these things out, you are so impressive. Great work!!!

georgiapeach · « **Reply #523 on:** January 27, 2011, 06:44:31 PM »

No need to wait to your next life...just start small! Search flickr and other photosites, blogs, twitter and facebook often...you never know what you may find!!

But thanks!
