There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

somebody stole Dyce?

Jamie,
Dyce hasn't been done yet. But there are others that have been...Driffield, Catterick, Drem, Prestwick, Outston, (relocated) Acklington, and Dishforth.
Still to come...Dyce, Church Fenton, Kirton-In-Lindsey, and Usworth.
Another member requested a couple of Cornish airfields, (St. Eval and Predannack) so I'll ask later today if these can be worked in.

Coastlines? Did anyone ever get them compiled with Sanders tool? Wouldn't compile for me, and I remember they were not included at his site.

Jamie,
The coastlines for Sander's files stop around the latitude of Trondheim, I think. Scotland should be cool!

Mark,
I'll see what I can do...but that means you'll have to create the GSL harbor scenery for Belfast and recreate the "Belfast Blitz" in Mission Builder. (I'm already spread far too thin as it is) Deal?

Hey guys,
It if isn't obvious yet, achim27619 is the architect, I am testing and consolidating his new airfields into the packages for JHS_England and JHS_Germany. Kdriver is also testing. That way when they are released, there are no bugs.
My main area of concern was to get some new airfields in the North of England and Southern Scotland for the attack by Luftflotte 5 on 15 August, 1940. However, other airfields have been added to the mix, such as Prestwick, near The Clyde.
I'm going to ask about a couple of Cornish bases and maybe the Northern Ireland bases.
Blood_Hawk23, Rosyth is less than 20 kilometers from Drem, I think that's reasonably close.

if you have a gsl layout for it could you send me it?

no Rosyth. If you have it that is.

No, that's what I'm saying. Drem is within forty kilometers of Rosyth. I'm very cognizant not to bite the hand that feeds me. If a base is reasonably close to a location such as this, I use the nearest airfield, rather than request another one.
Also, given that Achim is making WWII airfields, concrete runways for a WWI airfield would look just...well...strange, don't ya think?

Actually Rosyth was and still is the Royal Navy dockyard just to the west of the Forth Bridge. Iain Murray made models of the rail and road bridges for FS2000. They're compatible with CFS2 and available at FlightSim.com. The road bridge should be deleted as it was built after the war. FS2004 has a good rendition of the bridge but I don't know if it can be converted for CFS2 use.

Rami,
Yeah I'm looking for the dockyard. I haven't done any of the WWI British Airfields. Though I should start looking into them.
I'm working on a little project right now. I want to do the Trees like LW's but in a forrest set. Allen has helped me to find out how to set the models to rotate to the aircraft. But I'm considering some Searchlights that can be place in MB. Maybe not used as GSL but rather have them as infastructures. I'm still in the learning phase. I'll let you know how it goes.

Hey guys,
Usworth and Kirton-In-Lindsey are both completed. Achim also has no problem doing Predannack, St. Eval, Aldergrove, Stornoway, Limavady, Ballykelly, and Nutts Corner. He's on it!
If you (Shessi) and Kdriver and anyone else can provide me with locations and other intel (period pictures, for example) I will send it along to him. I will also try to do some research on my own.

...just out of curiosity, have you ever seen this site? http://www.wartimememoriesproject.com/ww2/airfields/index.php
It has a listing of ALL bases in WW2 England and what groups were operating there. Could probably get pics etc.. by looking for websites of those groups.
