jumping to the meat of the link:

Keyhole continuously updates its database with the average age of imagery ranging from 18 to 24 months. Imagery can vary in age from as new as 2-3 months to as old as 2-3 years. Keyhole is increasingly taking advantage of satellite imagery to update the Keyhole database more aggressively.

I still suggest you follow the link--you can find out how old the pictures of your area are.

I'm a little less than 10 miles west of the airport (if by airport you meant Metro)

I dunno... I just saw landing strips.

There's a smaller airport (Willow Run) right across 94 from me, and then Detroit Metro is just down the road to the east.

I raised the size limit to 1000x800.

Thanks Alex

I'm so going to turn the satellite lasers on you.

EDIT: I'd post mine, but it's just a blurry mess and the pic is really old.

did anybody else notice that the little information bubble google pops up puts a shadow on the satellite image?

Yeah... it does it on the map version too.
