I think it's in kind of a testing phase right now, seeing as how they're not advertising it. I think we're basically the beta-testers. Once the "helicopter" gets to your destination, though, you can fly around in normal Google Earth fashion.

the 3D was released April 2010...the helicopter may be a new feature.
edit:scroll down to April 2010 it is in the last sentence of the paragraph.
