Can someone make a scenery for Dover Cliffs?

Ignoring the fact that "Bluebirds" live in North America and the song was written by a citizen of the United States for a US audience for a moment, the "White Cliffs of Dover" technically stretch all the way along the South coast of Britain, as the chalk bed that they are part of incorporates large areas of the Isle of Wight, amongst other places.

This cropped up not too long ago on the telly again when we caught a new episode of the BBC's series "Coast" where they were discussing the South Downs and they are very similar to the cliffs at the tip of Kent indeed. When you look across the Channel at the North coast of Normandy, in particular, you can see why.

I'd suggest, if you do it, that you pick a start and end point as close as possible to Dover without it being blatantly obvious. Most people around the world won't care. Those who do know them intimately will just be glad to have them, so I don't think you'd get any complaints at all.
 
Well Andy from Dorset, you look forward to many years ahead of you while I'm glad to get another month or two
IanP, you got no romance in your soul. Be it British or the United States, that song brought a lot of hope when it looked the darkest for both countries and the Japs were beating the hell out of us at Bataan and Corregidor.

You can purchase Scenery from Horizon.com for all of England and Wales in Photographic Detail (They are now doing Scotland Scenery)Its Very good I have flown over my Home town and I can even make out the house where I was Born
 
Back here in America we are having a recession In other words jobs and money is very scarce. To pay $40.95 for a patch of U.K is a bit too much. I only paid $35 for all of FSX.
Andy, there was no offense.
 
I bit the bullet (over 6 months) and purchased all 3 Horizon UK volumes and a new HD to put them on. They now form my entire FS world pretty much. Although I am not UK based any more, I can sll fly totally VFR with the Mk1 Eyeball for hours just using some old low altitude charts I 'forgot to hand back' when I left the RAF years ago.

With free and payware UK2000 scenery it gives me all I want, I was never sold on MS default terrain anyway. Expensive yes, but for the hours I use it, well worth it.

I was refering to initial trials of IV./(N) JG 2 by late '39/early'40 where the Bf109 was widestly without success.
The next try with the Bf109 as a nightfighter was by summer 1941, again without much success.

And the Bf-110 was so much better?
