The map "edge" has to occur somewhere. I think the limits Oleg has chosen are sufficiently large to allow a lot of flexibility in mission building and will keep the majority happy for some time.

I would be interested in knowing whether the coastlines will continue at low resolution beyond the map edge. As mentioned earlier OM has said that the game engine can model the entire globe. This will give a much better view at high altitude than the existing IL2 effect at the map edge.

It s a shame that important sites like Duxford have been left out but I can understand why. On the southern coast I would have preferred to see the line drawn west of Weymouth (Portland), which was the scene of attacks in the Channel Phase. -- but I guess since we have Southampton and Portsmouth we cant complain.

Not having the correct airfields for the Regia Aeronatica seems like a more important omission since we will have their aircraft. -- but then again we are getting a Gloster Gladiator. They were based in the West Country, well off the map. On balance the more aircraft the better.
