45 degree imagery baseman gmaps data rather than vertical

[gonzoearth]

My guess is that the Gmaps API has evolved to automatically switch to 45 imagery when you dive deep enough on z in this example if you zoom out 2 levels the map reverts back to vertical. I think the preference here would be to stay with vertical and just have browser/digital zoom rather than allowing to to jump to different map type at the lowest levels http://mapknitter.org/maps/ftmchenry
