Thought this was quite interesting.

when you zoom in - give it a few moments to reload with the next level of detail.
Good for scoping out tracks - runways etc.
Also - quite scary the level of detail that Satellites can give up.

You can zoom right in - looks like the images are taken from quite a while back.
Aswell as Snetterton
And even closer

You can get some nice views of The Clyde, Faslane etc, shows all the MCMV's and Submarines... would seem an odd thing to do, publish the whereabouts of our forces vessels if they are up to date :?

Had look for all airfields in norfolk - you can see the Jags sat on Coltishall - plus didn't realise quite how many disused airfields there are in norfolk.

I have been to Faslane in the base and slept on a Destroyer, triple bunk beds, not good on the top, you barely have enough room to breathe !!
Also been round the Clyde a few times in my Cadet Force days lol
