I’ve thrown together a quick demo of several segments (almost 400 miles worth) of the V316 low-level airway westbound from the Ottawa VORTAC to the Sault Ste. Marie VOR/DME. The best part, in my opinion, is the ability to switch to a satellite view and then zoom in on different parts of the route — for example, switch to satellite, zoom in on the Killaloe VOR, and you will be able to see the abandoned airfield beside the VOR.
There is no server-side code involved in this demo: everything happens inside your browser (as a result, it won’t work without a fairly new browser). The demo consists of a simple HTML page, a few lines of JavaScript, and a short CSS stylesheet.

Very nice.
Check out http://www.runwayfinder.com/. Google maps with FAA Charts.
Thanks for the link — it’s nice the way the site integrates FAA sections with Google maps. I’ll try to make a full posting about it soon.
I’ve got a similar set of pages that has all the airways imported from the ATA 100 CD-ROM.
