      Indeed. As a kid living in L.A. and having experienced the 1971 Sylmar earthquake (scary af), I knew ABOUT the San Andreas Fault but was never given a complete picture of its size or length or even the reason it was there. Then Google Earth comes along, drones, and yes, these wonderful pilots, to provide a prospective we can't get on the ground, and it's simply fascinating -- and humbling. Two of the largest tectonic plates on the planet grinding past each other, and you can stand right on it -- drive over it daily.
      Another fascinating flight would be along the entire length of the San Andreas from the Salton Sea to Cape Mendocino, just to see the different geographic and climatic settings as you trace the fault -- and just how many millions of people face the threat this massive plate boundary poses to those living on either side of it.

      I was living in Long Beach during the Sylmar quake, and as bad as it shook there 35 miles from the epicenter, I can only imagine how bad it was in the Valley. That's the worst quake I'd ever been through; 2nd worst would be the Borrego Mtn quake in '68, but in Long Beach it was nowhere near as intense as Sylmar. Lots of rolling, sloshed a bunch of water out of our pool; but the S waves by the time they reached Long Beach was just a slow roll and lasted maybe 20 seconds.
