Taking a break from Pearl, thought you might like somewhere to fly the Japanese aircraft in your hanger from---
Iwakuni is today an US marine corp airbase home to their F35's, but started life in 1940 as a training base for the Japanese naval air arm and part of the Etajima Naval Academy. After the war became home to the Royal Navy FAA and New Zealand force's and to the RAAF during the Korean war, so good flying oppotunities with many IJN type's including Chris and Shessi's A4N, but also RN and RZN F-4 Corsair's and Australian Sea Fury's and Gloster Meteor's. There's also a water start for flying boats fans
Some great photo's here--http://www.royalnavyresearcharchive.org.uk/FAA-Bases/Iwakuni_Album.htm
Usuall suspects for the objects, Wolfi's and RAF Manston but also my Mingaladon-Burma FS9, found in the SOH FS9 scenery lib, as im using the CFS2 objects that i used for that scenery. You may want to check out the improved CFS2 object texture's by UncleTgt, found in SOH CFS2 scenery-library objects, they work just as well in 9
Ive also started to play with the vehicles by Edmundo Abad, converted by our own Shessi, looking good Mark
You'll need Akemi's a6m2b Zero in your hangar, as there's a basic traffic file included, only static im afraid, but they still look good.
And thanks to stuart277 for the training ship Izumo, anchored just off shore
