More times than I care to admit, I've been foxed by the cache of my browser
storing an old version of a page. I suspect this may be the case with
Mapquest, because I don't recall it ever having an aerial photo option
before, but it does now. I recently dumped my cache, so I didn't have to
remember to hit "Refresh" or "Reload" to get a fresh copy.
This implementation is much better than some others, by the way -- the
Microsoft site that attempts to match up topo maps and aerial images does a
truly lousy job of finding the same place when you switch from map to photo
or back.
