First off, I am not whining. The CE map (or chart!) is a 'nice to have' but I thought it might be worth pointing out some errors which could be misleading/confusing. After all, it can only be a good thing to get things as accurate and realistic as possible in our 'game'. I'm not expecting the map to be redone, I just hope this is helpful info to anyone using the map.
Some airfields are marked in the right place but with the wrong name. Some that are marked, I'm not entirely certain there were ever airfields there. e.g. The airfield shown on the Isle of Wight (the small island just off shore from Portsmouth) is actually Bembridge, not Sandown. Sandown airfield is more towards the centre of the island, and is not shown. The airfield shown as Tangmere is actually RAF Ford. The actual Tangmere is not shown. The airfield shown as Wilmington never exisited, not according to my 1942 chart anyway. There is a village called Willingdon there, but no airfield. Perhaps there was an emergency strip there? I don't know. Anyway, I'm sure there are more things, but you get the idea. PPanPan
