"RAFB RAF Bardney 1945"   msfs in game map ident

Navigation Location    53.224302, -0.295607

The current site is not used for flying (except model aircraft), so adding this to modern day scenery works ok. It will not spoil the modern day flying experience. The current airfield is still pretty much intact, however main runways half gone & chemical works cover a lot of the office/maintenance site area.

Stil work in progress, but fully functional.
Lots to do to make this more realistic, buildings, air raid shelters etc.

The bomb "dump" stores & roads have been added. All 3 runways, 07/25 Main 2000yds, Subsidiaries 12/30 & 02/20. All 36 Dispersals. Parking has been added to All dispersal points. All taxiways added & Linked to all Dispersal. ATC is operational so taxi help should show if enabled. Runway centre lines added (Period 1944 Film from Hemswell shows centre lines on runways). Runway numbers not shown. Main Beacon added at West end of runway 07/25. Inner marker added to East end of rwy 07/25. 

A couple of DC3'S & One Stirling static on Dispersals. A couple of Spitfires visiting & A Stuka has "bought the farm"!
NOTE: For the DC3, Stirling, Spitfire & Stuka Static aircraft to show you will also need to download the Vintage Aircraft Collector library V1.0 

New version 2. Now with 27 static Lancasters on some of the 36 Dispersals. Parking for cold starts, now only on empty dispersals. at 01,05,07,13,16,37,28 & 36. Static stirling models removed, with one remaining near South East hangar.
With Many Thanks to mgh65  for modifying the Lancaster model, making suitable for the scenery.
