Only Hawkinge or several airfields?

What airfields?

Are they all from the same pack or from different ones?

Did they show before and suddenly stopped appearing or did they never work as intended?

Did you check the readme files and made sure that you have installed everything needed(any special objects or buildings)? I see many Achim airfields, and his readme files are very clear about what is needed to make them look right.

Sorry, but we probably need a bit of info to try to help.

Let's start out by straightening out your scenery.cfg

Why was this a problem?

You had "gaps" or "breaks" in the scenery layers. In addition, there were three scenery layers which proved to be unnecessary.

1) [Area.034]
Title=atlanticwall
Local=SCENEDB\atlanticwall
Remote=
Active=TRUE
Required=FALSE
Layer=26

These are just standard library objects. The .bgl files go into the scenedb\inf\scenery folder, the textures go into the scenedb\inf\texture folder.

2 and 3) [Area.037]
Title=Br-tanks-NA
Local=SCENEDB\Br-tanks-NA
Remote=
Active=TRUE
Required=FALSE
Layer=18

[Area.038]
Title=Ax-tanks-NA
Local=SCENEDB\Ax-tanks-NA
Remote=
Active=TRUE
Required=FALSE
Layer=19

These are just standard vehicles. The .bgl files go into the scenedb\veh\scenery folder, the textures go into the scenedb\veh\texture folder.

Copy and paste the revised scenery.cfg (my notes excluded) into your sim and see if that helps. If you still have problems, then we'll probe further. I have some GSL files for the BoB bases which might help solve your problem if it comes to that.

Also, are you aware that Achim's Haverhill essentially replaces BA Methwold, because it is in the same place?
 
If Rami's and Japlance's suggestions don't work, I would next check to see if you installed the GSL files for the airfields. Without it, the buildings won't show even if they are installed in your SCENEDB folder.
 
Hi PJMack,

In addition to the above, you appear to have both Gary Burns' Battle of Britain bases which includes Hawkinge, as well as Canion's ETO air bases which also includes Hawkinge. Both use GSL objects. Although they are situated a few miles from each other, it's possible they both use the same GOB area and one has cancelled out the other's GSL objects.

Thanks Jag (and everyone) it was the GSL.
