Google Earth & Bond Locations

With Google Earth it is possible to see satellite photos of locations that have been used in bond films. If you have looked up a bond location, post the coordinates here.

I'll start with one. In Moonraker bond and jaws have an aerial fight on a tram, and the tram ultimately crashes into the housing at the bottom. The location is called Sugarloaf Mountain in Rio de Janero. You can see it by typing this into google earth or google maps: -22.948611,-43.157222

If you look to the west you can see the plaza at the bottom of the tram. This is where the tram crashes through all the 7-Up signs... If you look to the north, you can see the airport that Bond and Goodhead were looking at.

    Great idea! I'm afraid I don't know where to find any good bond locations. Of course, the obvious ones like the eiffel tower (AVTAK) and vauxhall cross in london are pretty easy to find. I'll have a look and sea if I can find any of the more interesting locations.

    If you go to Pinewood studios on Google Earth you can see them filming Die Another Day- the Ice Palace set is on the backlot!

    Where is the backlot. Where do I look from the green arrow pointing at Pinewood? I don't see the Ice Palace at all.
    Some people would complain even if you hang them with a new rope
