Thought some might find this interesting:

On AS143, PDX-ANC, 37 minutes into flight is where we lost the connection to the Internet. (I had Flightaware tracking the flight in the background on my laptop, and since Flightaware's tracking page refreshes every minute, I could see that 37 minutes into the flight was the last successful refresh before the connection dropped.)

That would be here (at the green arrow):

http://maps.google.com/maps?q=49.35+...2,9.876709&z=7

That lat/lon is based on the Flightaware track log and counting 37 minutes into flight (20:55): http://flightaware.com/live/flight/A.../PANC/tracklog

Not sure if the historical track log is 5 minutes delayed like the live one...if so, then go northwest 50 miles or so (or check the lat/lon of 42 minutes into flight).
