  | | | Conceptual - Creative Question.... | Conceptual - Creative Question.... 2006-12-20 - By Michael Kaufman
Back Lets say the range is from hawaii to iceland:
* Think google earth animation .. pov of the pilots eyes (ie. no plane) flying from Hawaii to Iceland over a curved globe - you could even use google earth and screen grab that animation and lay some lines in sync w/ the animation and viola or * Imagine a flat plane and a 3d outline the Hawaiian islands sprouting up from the horizon.. then the globe turns and you're over a 3d outline of California.. ....then colorado.....toronto...newfoundland...yadda yadda.. Underneath is a text field counting up the amound of miles.. 0 - 10,000 or whatever it is.
or.
An animated graph w/ sliders... There's lots of ways that would look "cooler" and if you could pull any of the above off using AJAX..my hat is off to you :)
Best of luck!

When you say, "supports the information", it leads me to believe that you are trying to convey more than simply the range of the aircraft.
Can you share the other communication points with us?
