The nuclear sub base at Faslane used to be pixelated out, while the whole surrounding area was high-res. I notice that this has changed now and much of the surrounding area has conveniently gone back to a very crumby low-res to make it look like it's not censored.

There used to be a U-2 on the deck at Fairford, before Fairford was pixelated out entirely. The airfield returned to high-res a few months later, sans U-2.

Before:

After:

Afterall, the public has no idea that U-2s are flown out of Fairford.

Nice one.

What's with all the USAF heavies jamming up the runway at Prestwick too? You can even read the numbers on the wings, if you're that way inclined.
