| TexasAndroid | 2008-07-07 11:39:29 | Moments before Colliding | We've had other sequences where we see the same plane multiple times because of how both it and the camera plane are moving. Not exactly the case here, as those are definitely different planes, but... |

| TexasAndroid | 2008-04-16 14:25:28 | Montreal Prison | Looks like there has been an image update since the original post and, in the latest imagry, the pool appears to be gone. The spot where it was is darker than the surrounding yard, so you can still... |
| TexasAndroid | 2008-01-15 12:24:31 | Brandywine Receiver Site | Actually, if you spin the BEV page, the buildings are still there in some of the views, but gone in others. That shows a larger than normal time difference for the different angles. |
| TexasAndroid | 2008-01-04 14:27:46 | Fire Trucks | Very, very nice. :) |
| TexasAndroid | 2007-12-19 08:05:16 | Quai de l'horloge | So.... Given the current possible categories, how would you suggest I do categorize this currently? If there's really nothing else that fits, and it was originally posted primarily for it's... |
| TexasAndroid | 2007-12-18 09:05:20 | Quai de l'horloge | Anyone know what this is? it's categorized only in the In The News category, but has no More Info link to why it's in the news, or even what it is. |

| TexasAndroid | 2007-09-26 16:27:45 | Russian Icebreaker off the coast of Antarctica | Very cool! |
| TexasAndroid | 2007-09-06 07:46:37 | Race car on Walt Disney World Speedway | If you move around the track in the same view direction, you can see what is IMHO likely the same car two more times. It can also be seen in at least one other view in the pits. (Assuming it's all... |

| TexasAndroid | 2007-07-24 13:51:03 | Military training at Lackland AFB | Not 100% certain that this should count as "Training", but it's definitelty military, and is a cool find in general, so I've given it the benefit of the doubt and given it credit. :) |
| TexasAndroid | 2007-07-24 13:47:32 | Inflatable bouncy-house | Cool. In the East view you can see it deflated. :) |
| TexasAndroid | 2007-07-20 11:25:57 | Southwest Airlines 'Triple Crown One' | Not just probably the same. AFAIK, except for the Shamu planes, there's only one plane with each of the other Southwest special liveries. (Shamu has three at a time, and I beleive has had at least... |
| TexasAndroid | 2007-07-18 15:58:32 | Fire Training Exercise | Nice. This was one of the Hunt categories that I was not certain anyone would find, but was definitely hoping would show up. Great find. |
| TexasAndroid | 2007-07-17 11:44:39 | Oceania Cruise Lines ship "Regatta" | Most likely the Regata, based on the line's web page, but cannot be 100% certain. In the year or so that they list, looking forward only, the only ship of their line to dock in Miami is the Regata... |

I do want to stress that, just because someone found this plane at one... |
| TexasAndroid | 2007-07-12 15:17:22 | Southwest Airlines 'Shamu' in Las Vegas | Gratz on this one. I do hope someone finds one or more of the other special Southwest planes, but the Shamu ones are certainly the most distinctive from above. (Speaking as someone who has done... |

| TexasAndroid | 2007-05-30 13:16:47 | Chopper close to the water | I think that's just clouds, not smoke. If you scan to the left and a little down in that view, you'll get a large cloud over the coast. So it's not a totally cloudless day. |
| TexasAndroid | 2007-05-30 13:08:42 | Chopper close to the water | Something is definitely happening. I'm pretty much convinced that it's the same chopper in both shots, because the boats also appear to be the same. You have the same boats in at least 3 view, with... |
| TexasAndroid | 2007-05-30 11:33:33 | Maltese Falcon, The (yacht) | Argh. I was just a few minutes too slow with my submission of this same ship. :) I guess a number of us are scouring the new BeV imagry at La Spezia. Still, a very cool ship. :) |

| TexasAndroid | 2007-03-05 11:30:22 | "Cruise Missile" in Flight | Looking at Google Sightseeing, they comment that it's actually a plane with black wings that blend in with the trees. And a closer look shows that to be true. Oh, well. Still looks cool. |
| TexasAndroid | 2007-03-05 11:26:40 | "Cruise Missile" in Flight | Very Cool!!
With the contrail behind, and the normal movement ghosting artifact above, this is definitely in motion, not just sitting on the ground. Very, very cool. |
