Just as quick follow-up. I have recently seen that too. Was riding Concorde eastbound from KSFO. About that mentioned altitude or higher. Departed around dawn local time (KSFO local, that is) and awaited upcoming night due to longitude change/time. Then all the views changed to something resembling the referenced screenshot (I might have similar looking ones lying around here). After a couple of minutes everything settled into the normal, more expected night/dark/whatever vision. So, while not a terrible disaster, perhaps some glitch lingers around. Perhaps I could, errm, shed some light on it. regards K.
