I like any excuse to mention the Jones Live Map. Back in the day it hooked up to a car odometer and when the arrow pointed to a direction, you'd take it.

It works well as long as you never miss a direction, then it gets off.

It'd be horrible with the variability in land speed from the same engine speed, but maybe that'd be part of the "fun" trying it for an airplane.

If you're ever in Maine, I highly recommend the museum. I'm not the biggest car guy, but it was neat seeing everything they had.
