Map of past flights

I am looking for a way to display past flights on a map so that I can see where I've been and identify areas that I might want to go next.  Just a visual aid, not necessarily an uber-flight plan.

Ideally, I would like to simply add PLG and/or PLN routes on a visual map.  Plan-G has a great visual appearance and easy flight plan display, and it almost gets me to my goal with the merge function.  But it only allows the display of one flight plan at a time.  If I include a snippet for a flight plan that is located 1,000 miles away then I get a 1,000-mile connecting leg across an area I may have never flown.

Does anyone know if there is a way to display more than one route in Plan-G?  Alternatively, is there another application or online service that provides a visual map of multiple routes?

Thanks!

In Options -> user aircraft, enable Breadcrumb trail logging. You can then open the trail files in Plan-G, Google Earth, or anything else that supports IGC flight tracker files.

I converted one of my IGC files to KML and it worked perfectly in Google Earth.  It's almost too easy.  Thank you!
