Beware of this data...it is of no use whatsoever (except explanations of planquadrat in the last link).
Most of the locations were made using darts from 10 yards away, and 2/3 of them are not even designating airfields. If you want real locations, tell me, I will send a kmz file.
Even MG who had this kmz file made some slight positioning mistakes, but admittedly small and not too many...
MG serious airfield errors are of a different nature (runways/L_T/O directions were none really existed, and usually not even representative of preferred axises, wrong shapes, haphazard hangar locations, no clear boundaries etc etc). Hopefully a revision will be possible later...

did your map ever get completed and can we get it somewhere?

btw, I notice that Wooster's link and a couple of others on the back of it are the subject of anti-piracy action by the US Govt.

Please, could any kind soul update the cursed megaupload link?

Thanks a lot.

Salutes.

I have the 'English_Channel_1940_10752x9216_terrain' file - is that the one you guys want? I've lost track... 90 MB PDF, am happy to upload somewhere.

Is that the one with the UK railways added jimbop? I'd really like to get hold of that one. Thanks.

Its pretty much completed other than the French Rail system. I will figure out a compromise regarding size and put it somewhere for downloads.

Great stuff, thanks for all that hard work IvanK. I've been desperate for a map with UK railways...makes navigation so much easier.

Cheers

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.
