as my home base, and full time work, it offers nothing over current FREEWARE airfield, and is certainly not worth 14 pounds. 56 SQn is not even correct, so is not good!!!

all i can say, is hold on a bit longer, as we have a freeware Leuchars coming soon, which is on par with the UKSD and UKMIL Cranwell and Coningsby packs

here is an UNEDITED shot of our CBY pack, which shows the photoreal aspects, and our Leuchars airfield is BETTER than this, so is well worth hanging on for

we are also planning Kinloss and Lossie to go along side

It looks extremely good Dave. As it should be with access to the base. :) Think I'll download it myself when it's finished. Hehe. ;-)
Unfortunately I can't use GE ground textures in Payware. Breach of copyright and all.

Edit: Just checked the GE EULA it also applies to freeware. It also applies to MS Live Local who use Getmapping images, Getmapping and Bluesky. Bluesky will sell you HiRes images at around £800 as will Getmapping. :-( Too steep for me.

I didn't know the RAF had those? :S Do you not mean HS125 / Dominie aircraft (Hawker 800's I think they are called now)

Oddly enough, at 45 Sqn at Cranwell, there's a photoshopped picture of the 400A in the current King Air's colours. I think it may have been one of the options as a Jetstream replacement at some point. Not good for academic asymmetric though... :)

I think that USAF use Beechjet 400s for multi-engine training, or maybe it is just the USAF academy.
