Mapquest used to have more flexibility- it would let you pick a route
without highways, very useful to me.
Anyone have an alternative that has the no highways feature?

You must mean without major highways?  Mapquest will pick the shortest
route instead of the quickest.

It also used to have aerial photos of most parts of the U.S.  Why has
this feature
been removed?  I'm guessing it's for "homeland security" reasons.

Mapblast does not have the no highway feature that I am looking for, but
thanks anyway.
