Very True.

In bored moments at work over the last 4 years, I took to sticking pins in every airfield I could find on Google earth, then googling the name of the local villages with 'RAF' in front of them to name the airfield. Zoom in to anywhere in Norfolk and you'll spot the typical letter 'A' shape of the runways, even if it's long disused.

Which brings up a further question. The arrangement of the runways at Biggin in the game looks 'wrong' as they more or less come to an apex at one point rather than the classic 'A' shape.

Does anyone know if this is accurate or not?

Cheers.
