Thanks for sharing this info. I will check it out as soon as possible. Sit rep: RAF Odiham, an airfield of the Bomber Command is nearly finished. Flak and some small building are missing.

Take off from RAF Farnborough during Battle of Britain

RAF Farnborough airfield and Aircraft Factory

RAF Stapleford Tawney, a small satellite airfield for RAF North Weald. Inside the camouflaged C-Type Hangar, made by Sundowner, you can sometimes find parked airplanes.

RAF Gravesend, a camouflaged satellite airbase of RAF Biggin Hill, south of Tillbury Docks.

RAF Thorney Island. Now located at the correct point of the map. Its a try to use a different tile for the airfield than the stock airfield tiles. So the airfield looks more camouflaged. Heavy flak fire over Thorney Island From distance the airfield is difficult to see.

WIP screenshot. RAF Thorney Island in a very early phase. The grass runway is layed out. The C-Type Hangars are placed at position i got from the Google Earth image. BTW the new camouflaged C-Type Hangars, made by Sundowner, are difficult to see on the screenshot. Thanks a lot, Sundowner! The Hangars are great!

RAF Ford alias RNAS Peregrine alias RAF Ford Junction

RAF Warmwell, a Spitfire base near Weymouth. View from east view from west

RAF Martlesham Heath reworked

Thanks for correction. I have renamed the airbase now to RAF Martlesham Heath.

RAF Martlesham I was unable to find an air footage of the airfield in 1940. Only a very bad one from 1946. RAF Martlesham was used from 1943 by the americans and got long crossing runways. So the position of buildings at my RAF Martlesham is only a guess.

RAF Duxford

RAF Debden Robinson Shelters at RAF Debden

RAF Debden, WIP. I want to show you, how i make the airbases. First i create a temporary tile which is simply a picture from Google Earth. This will be placed on the map. From this sat picture and old WW2 air footages i can guess where the single buidlings and runways and taxiways were located. Then i place the groundobjects on the guessed position. And when all is layed out as i wish i will replace the temporary tile with normal airfield tile on the map. And so looks RAF Debden at the moment:

RAF North Weald

Better Wedgie than Veggie!

As quick and dirty fix you could use the line: EngineSoundName=PropLoop to overwrite the existing entry in the data.ini of the plane.

I like it!

No. Its not planned. Seaplanes were used for SAR missions only over the Ärmelkanal/English Channel/Le Manche. SAR missions are not possible in SF2 world. Thatswhy i will not include bases for seaplanes.

Here is a screenshot from the book which i have mentioned. The left side shows a german fighter airfield during BoB:

The problem is to get footages from 1940 for the german airfields. The british are well documented, the german bases rather less. I found a foto in Gallands book "Die Ersten und die Letzten", which showed an german airfield during BoB. It was a cluster of tents and huts and planes standing wild in the area. I will do my best to give each airfield an unique apperance. Sit rep: I added some more buildings and the Flak defence for RAF Northolt.

RAF Northolt, an airfield west of London. Later in war the runways became longer and a third runway was built.

Alert take off from RAF Hornchuch airfield.

Thanks a lot. Sit rep: RAF Hornchurch, airfield of the second defend line of the Fighter Command, situated near London. First stage, only airfield buidlings are set Stage 2, included a road to the village and placed village houses. And so it looks now:
