Hope not a small plane down

I was just browsing around and saw this along the Saudi/Yemen line and hope it's not a small plane down, and two people to the left walking away from it.
 It's kind of hard to determine the scale.

Hello please provide a placemark in you're posts.


How to

Hmmm, hard to tell what that object is, another object 212 meters to the East.

For trying to determine scale, try using the Ruler in the Tools menu, you can choose what measurements you want.

The object you found is 20 feet long.

when browsing surroundings, you see a developing new road next to the border line, (check linear earth(sand)works and asphalt cover between two available imagery dates 2006-2016)/(imagery seeming 1,2 kilometers to W).

on BingMaps' better resolution aerial imagery (compared with GE imagery sections, it might be from around 2011) we find two piles of sand. (the one to the right has rectangular shape).

so my best guess, what you see on GE imagery are piles of sand/stone/other material and earthmover equipment for border/road maintenance.

Thank you for suggesting Bing over Google. The reason i don't use Google Earth is that since it moved to Chrome, Chrome and Macbooks do not play well together. Chrome immediately sends the fans into overtime and begins a heating problem. I figured coordinates would be good enough.
