I've heard about guys who "collect" sightings of airplanes in flight on Google Maps and found a plane in flight myself just this evening. I searched Google for references to it but couldn't find a single one so maybe this is a new sighting.
The airplane is almost directly over George Washington's residence at Mount Vernon in Virginia.
Below is a screen capture of the view on Google Maps. The plane is there in Google Earth also. If you look just south of the main residence (the large red-roofed building adjacent to the oval drive) between the house and the river you'll be able to see a passenger jet in a steep bank. The second image below is zoomed in on the jet.

Cool.
