Manston, Hawkinge airfields and Cap Griz Nes
All three of these locations i have made as painstakingly close to their historical counterparts as i could with a lot of my own research and help from some of the BDG (Bob Development Group) guys and their years of research as well as input from simhq members.
Manston airfield version 1. Showing the Eastern side of the field. The biggest issue with getting these fields to look correct from the air imo was the placing all of the various side roads and aircraft taxi strips. Download link at bottom of page.

Wissant airfield, basically a bunch of camo netting , no hangars or hardstandings. There is still debate if there was even any sort of airfield at Wissant other than a decent flat area where emergency landings may have happened.
St Audembert , much the same deal , camo netting under some trees in the corner of the field.
