April '08 A51 images in Google Earth

--I searched for similar topics, and I also read the titles of every thread in the section for seven pages to make sure this isn't a duplicate. I've read the Google earth and Area 51 sticky! Sorry if it is a duplicate!--

Incase you haven't noticed, Google updated their imagery with the latest version (4.3 beta) and have supplied us with an updated image of our favorite top secret base. Although not much has changed, there are differences from the previous images. The images, according to Google Earth, were taken April 14, 2008. Here are some differences in the imagery:

Here's an image off the internet of the old imagery for compare:

I'm sorry if this isn't anything new! Thought I'd point it out for anyone who hasn't noticed or is interested!

That pad looks like a vertical take off area. Wonder whats going on there then ?

As for the new construction, the air force this year has a 18 BILLION dollar classified expenditure.

18 billion dollars. thats one hell of alot of work for area 51.

I can assure you the imagery is not from April 2008. The new hanger is less completed than when I photographed it in 2007.
