Not so much amazing as amusing, back in the 80's I flew from Boston to Dulles - I don't recollect the airline or many details, except that we never got very high and on the flight we flew over and I was able to clearly identify my apartment building in Quincy, where I was living at the time, the apartments in Connecticut where I lived at one time, the house in New Jersey where I grew up, and the house in New Jersey where my parents were living at the time. It was old home week.
Cheers,
