Using google maps

Question

Does anyone know how to include google maps as one of the base layers? I also have an Image service for a city, would it be possible to overlay this on top of the ESRI image service?

Another question is how can i make an operational layer visible by default when the flex viewer app is started?

Prestige,

I got it to show your imagery with this:<layer label="test image Service" type="image" visible="false"
       url="http://cuo.geomatics.uct.ac.za/ArcGIS/rest/services/Capetown/ImageServer"/>

I have also tried type="image" but the result is the same.
