| EGXJ - RAF Cottesmore - Rutland, England |
|
File Description:
RAF Cottesmore (ICAO EGXJ) is a former Royal Air Force station in Rutland, England, situated between Cottesmore and Market Overton.
The Stationed opened on 11 March 1938 and was used mainly for training, and the first squadrons were equipped with Vickers Wellesley aircraft, but soon converted to Fairey Battles. Later RAF Bomber Command took over the airfield, again as a training station, flying Handley Page Hampdens. These units remained in residence until a few days before the outbreak of war in 1939 when they were sent to RAF Cranfield to serve as a pool providing replacements for combat losses. Their place at Cottesmore was taken by Nos. 106 and 185 Squadrons, moving in from RAF Thornaby with Hampdens. However, with the outbreak of war, the aircraft and crews were sent to locations in the north and west, as enemy air attacks were expected over the southern half of England. As these never materialised, the Hampdens returned in the spring of 1940 and No. 185 Squadron became the Hampden operational training unit, No. 14 Operational Training Unit RAF.
RAF Cottesmore's Hampdens' first trespass into hostile airspace was a leaflet dropping operation over northern France. In October 1940, 106 Squadron moved to RAF Finningley while No. 14 OTU remained training crews for Bomber Command, its Hampdens and HP.53 Herefords being replaced by Vickers Wellingtons in 1942. Training continued for three years and three months until August 1943 when No. 14 OTU moved to RAF Market Harborough.
In early December 2009, it was announced the station would close due to funding cut-backs, in part to help pay for additional helicopters for British operations in Afghanistan.
In 2010, No. 4 Squadron RAF disbanded, with No. 20 Squadron RAF re-badging as No 4 (Reserve) Squadron.
The station became a satellite to RAF Wittering on 31 March 2011 with a civic parade and flypast to mark the disbandment of No 1 Sqn RAF, 800 NAS, 801 NAS and JFH.
In July 2011 Defence Secretary Liam Fox announced plans for it to be the airfield for one of five of the Army's Multi-Role Brigades. In April 2012 it was renamed Kendrew Barracks after Major General Sir Douglas Kendrew.

File Description:
At 4:30 A.M. on May 10, 1940, three Junkers Ju 52's took off from the Cologne airfields of Ostheim and Butzweilerhof, towing behind them three other aircraft that lacked motors. The first front service of a new weapon, the freight glider, developed by the DFS (Deutsche Forschungsanstalt fur Segelflug / German Research Institute for Sailplane Flight), had begun. A total of 41 DFS-230 freight gliders with 400 paratroopers were launched for this mission. It was their task to take the Belgian Fort Eben Emael near Maastrich. With this successful operation the crossing of the Albert Canal was secured and the cornerstone of Belgian defense fell in German hands.
These assault gliders were also used during the Krete invasion (1941). The DFS 230's last significant use was during the 'Eichen' operation: 10 assault gliders were used to deliver the group of hand picked commandos led by Otto Skorzeny against the Gran Sasso mountain-top hotel that was used to hold Mussolini. The Royal Italian Air Force (Regia Aeronautica) received from Luftwaffe, during 1941, almost 20 DFS-230 and 4 Gotha Go-242 assault gliders. These aircrafts were used only for pilot training until 09/1943.
Complete aircraft. Original GMAX hi-res model, features the usual moving parts, such as all flight controls, canopy, doors and so on (5 different versions); Five different liveries (4 'Luftwaffe' +1 "Regia Aeronautica'); multiview 2D panel (NO VC). Created by Manuele Villa.

| Northbrook East CF47 and Northbrook West CF48, Ontario, Canada |
|
File Description:
Thirty five miles north of the 401 on Highway 41 is a small town called Northbrook, and in the town itself is a dirt strip with a runway 11/29 1,830 feet long, which for the sake of telling them apart I have called Northbrook East. I have no idea of the history, or even of the reason why. Less than a mile west of the town is a second dirt strip with a runway 04/22 2,200 feet long. This one (Northbrook West) was built to support construction of the electrical power line installation and there is a dirt clearing between the strip and the power lines. There is absolutely nothing at either of these fields, no fuel, no oil, no hangar, and a very rough surface. Although I have made these as grass strips in fact they are dirt; the reason I didn't make them dirt is that dirt in FS9 stands out for miles and looks awful.

File Description:
A custom made Marble Hall Airfield (FAMI), Limpopo, South Africa with photoreal textures and photoreal ground.
The small airfield has been recreated with custom true to life models and photoreal textures. Some of the buildings on the approach to rwy 22 (and even the road-signs) have been modelled with custom true to life models with photoreal textures and the marble works next to the airfield is also included with custom models and custom textures. The airfield is mostly used by cropdusters and as an added bonus, two static cropdusters are included with the kind permission of their respective developers (a Piper PA-25 Pawnee by Andy Strukowsi and a Turbo Thrush by Marcel du Plessis). Both planes are flyable aircraft (see download details in Readme file) which were converted to static aircraft models by myself.
The paved runway is aligned 04/22 and 1 000m long and sits at an elevation of 3 000ft.

| Kangirsuk CYAS in Quebec Canada |

Images related to this file:
File Description:
Kangirsuk is an Inuit village in northern Quebec, on the coast of Ungava Bay. The airport is the only means of access on this coast for the population of around 550, apart from a period in late summer. It is between Quaqtaq and Aupaluk, and around 140 miles north of Kuujjuaq, a major centre in this area for supplies, medical care, education, and anything to do with local government. This version of the airport and village is from around 2010, with the original terminal building that has now been replaced. The runway is just under 3,500 feet of lit gravel aligned 04-22 and the AI includes the daily Air Inuit flight that connects Kangirsuk with Kuujjuaq and other local airfields en route. This is almost certainly the last of the northern Quebec coastal airfields that I will be able to model with the correct buildings; only two missing so not too bad.

| NSA - Pine Gap Australia |

Images related to this file:
File Description:
Joint Defense Facility Pine Gap is a satellite tracking station in the Australian outback operated by the United States intelligence community. The location is strategically significant because it controls United States spy satellites as they pass over the one third of the globe which includes China, the Asian parts of Russia and the Middle East. Central Australia was chosen because it was too remote for spy ships passing in international waters to intercept the signal. The facility has been described as the ground control and processing station for geosynchronous satellites engaged in signals intelligence collection. JDF Pine Gap is ran by the CIA, NSA, and NRO and is a key location in the global ECHELON surveillance network. Includes a helipad startup location with YPGP ident. Scenery by Jason L. Terry.
