Default Chinese black helicopters circle Google Earth

"Those among you who like your skies darkened by black helicopters are invited to mosey on down to the remote Chinese village of Huangyangtan which hosts what must be the strangest military installation ever spotted by the Google Earth Community." http://www.theregister.co.uk/2006/07...ngtan_mystery/

I thinkI recognize this...it looks like the Kaminskaya river front on the Northern Chinese/Russian border. The same place that the un-official Chino-Russian war occurred.

*EDIT*

Found the site documenting the incident and apparently I've had the name wrong this whjole time.
