Are scenery textures updated without announcement?

I’ve sometimes had a feeling that I’m seeing new textures in areas I’ve flown over a few times before, but they’re not part of WU cycles.

I’ve just seen a thread on another site asking about this, so can anyone on the community side confirm if this does or doesn’t happen?

seemingly, Australia got much newer sat imagery in places earlier in the year… though currently it reverted and has been using the older set previous set.

I hadn’t considered regressions…

Anyway, not convinced it really is happening, or just placebo / worsening eyesight!

it does, I was doing scenery creation and updated my scenery to the newer sat imagery… only to have it revert and throw all my changes out of the door (so everything is in limbo under the hope they return the newer more accurate set).
