Locations of Windtunnels to be viewed with GoogleEarth

As I am working with a windtunnel operator, I had the idea to collect the locations of windtunnels to be viewed in GoogleEarth. Depending on the data resolution you can see vaguely the location of the facility or often see the details of the facility itself. Windtunnels do exhibit a charateristic shape in many cases, because they are often too large to be hidden inside a hall. I have given reference to a web site describing the facility whereever I could find one. I will go on adding location.
If you have GoogleEarth correctly installed on your PC you may view all windtunnel locations by clicking here. A pop-up should ask you whether you want to download a kmz-file and start it with the default application, which should be GoogleEarth in this case.
You will first see an overview and the locations will be listed in your "places"-menu. Open the tree inside the kmz-file, click on "windtunnels". To start the animation press the play button at the bottom of your "places"-menu.

I also provide the places-file for single facilities below for your convenience, in case you look for a specific place.
