John gave us some great fields for GW3 and now...
From the readme:

FSX Scenery: EGLB Brooklands 1938 by John McKeon
New FSX version of Brooklands, which was one of my Vintage London Airports for FS2002/2004. Grass strip inside the banked motor race circuit; some unique buildings and bridges, the banked curves, a vintage steam train, real water features, lots of trees, and flying rooks, make for an exciting stringbag venue.

Nice to see John still doing scenery, I have not heard from him in several years. Has anybody tried this with Horizon VFR?
 
Well, it's a little later vintage than "Those Magnificient Men In Their Flying Machines", but it'll do nicely for my collection of Bleriot, Antoinette, Kruse, Farman, Avro and Caudron. And there's room for the Gladiator and Tiger Moth too! :jump:

Looks like I have a new home aerodrome.
 
He has released a second classic airfield:

[SIZE=-1]SX Scenery--Cardington NAS (EGRA) UK. Cardington NAS near Bedford, UK was the base for airship manufacture and operations from 1917 to 1938. This scenery represents the airfield in about 1928, with the launching airstrip, the mooring tower, the two giant airship hangars, and the Short Bros factory. Airship R101 occupies Hangar 1; Hangar 2 is empty and the doors are open. The main runway is asphalt surfaced and suitable for conventional aircraft, with NDB locator and offset ILS.

If you want somewhere else to operate them from, get the UK2000 VFR Airfields pack 2 demo for FSX and try Old Warden...

It's home to the Shuttleworth Collection, who, well. Link time. ;)

Those sceneries look really nice. I'll take a look at them later!
 
Cardington cool.
I delivered there a couple of months ago, the airship sheds are still there and one of them is used as a film studio.
I was absoloutly stuned by the size of them, there HUGE.
