Hi, Thought I would flag this up with the Talk-GB list as well, since London seems to be very quiet. Has anyone else noticed Bing's imagery at highest zoom levels (<10m ish) has disappeared recently? And does anyone know why, or if it will be returning? It's a big setback for tracing buildings and distinguishing close detail in dense urban areas where GPS can be very poor. Thanks, David.

I noticed this as well, seems to have happened 3 or 4 days ago (hard to tell exactly because the areas I've been working on most recently have tiles cached). It is a bit of a setback.
