Ju-88 over London.

Super Mirage 4000

Kangerlussuaq Airfield

Over Michigans fields.

For me it is this:

Only the coastlines are green, the rest is white. I think Greenland looks so in summertime. For the winter i must make some coastal tiles with snow. Greenland is to big for a 1.000 km map. Thats why i made only the southern part of Greenland. So Thule AB is outside of this map. I found only two airfields with runways long enough for fighter jets. the northern base i set for the USA, the southern base for the EU. Southwest of Greenland i placed the US carrierstation. Southeast is the european carrierstation. The most astonishing point of the map was for me the height of Greenland. The inner iceshield has heights of more than 3.000 meters. And the game engine does not like such heights. The planes fly up and down instead straight away. The afterburner starts and stops permanently.

Narsarsuaq Airfield. I had to relocate the base from the real location, because the AI was unable to take off from this base and crashed into the mountains. The fjordes in the Greenland terrain are a nightmare for a terrain maker.

Welcome in our community.

Somewhere i have heared, that Chile got Canadair CL-13 Mk.6 from West Germany in mid 1960th.

Perhaps someone of our south american friends can answer my question: Which versions of the F-86 Sabre were used by Chile and Argentina?

Chilli Hunters, ehm, ............. chilean Hunters.

The map cant be to small. You have the "invisible" wall of 80 km of the edge of the terrain, what means, that you lose 160 km airspace, which you cant use. If you give 200 km space for each side, then you have a minimum size of 560 km, lets say 600 km for the map. My experience is, that 1.000 km maps are the best compromise between size and workload for creating a detailed terrain.

When listening to the news in the radio program, what old Donald is thinking about Greenland, i had the idea: why not a terrain which covers parts of Greenland and the surrounding sea. Two carrier stations, one for the Americans, one for the Europeans, some danish F-35 on airfields on Greenland .... Nice blue vs blue scenario. Or what do you think?
