many thanks to the people making these maps, looks like it would have been a big job !

does anybody have experience having these larger maps printed at a commercial printer place ? is it possible for ex to have them printed on silk or canvas type material instead of paper ?

or is paper best and then have a thin lamination layer over the top (to prevent an often used map from tearing, or even allow erasable drawings to be made over the map for specific missions for ex)

My own personal choice would be on paper, then laminated, because then you can mark the maps for missions (course, turning points, timings etc) and erase the marks afterwards.

Still waiting for large printable navigation map. I could design one if needed. Scale 3in = 50km fits on A3 13" x 19"(329mm x 483mm) paper.

It would be much appreciated!!! but In my oppinion a slightly bigger scale would be a little bit better. For visual nav 1:500.000 is quite standard in aviation. And for the TGT area you need a 1:250K or even a 1:50K

3in = 50km is aprox. a 1:650000.

I have a photocopy map which is 1:400000 and its very difficult to see the landmarks for LL navigation. Thats why I say that maybe a little bit bigger would be better

regrads and thanks you for your offer

Here is the map in jpg format.

The Railways on the UK side are all hand drawn and correlate with period rail maps (Actual RAF Maps 1inch to 1 mile AIR Sheet 12 dated 1943) and in game. The Purple Grid overlay is as per the original UK Cassini grid that was used on Operational charts. Size is 4964 x 4220m pixels



A closeup of the railways are depicted:



Also Horsham as a town is now depicted in the Sim
