Awesome find! Pretty well detailed. But what's up with the second shadow, there's no helicopter for it. Just a double image with the helicopter missing on the double?

My guess as noted in the placemark, is that it's the same helicopter's shadow. If there was a second helicopter, due to the way the edges of the image tiles are, it'd be visible as it would be between the two shadows. Since there's no second helicopter, I think that the edge of the image tile is just slightly behind that front shadow.
