Watton 1944, USAAF Air Depot, Norfolk, England
(Category: FSX > Scenery)
0.12Mb (630 downloads)
Watton was home to the 25th reconnaissance group, operating various aircraft including the B:17, B:24, B:26 and De Havilland Mosquito for weather monitoring. Watton also hosted the 3rd Strategic Air Depot, where major overhauls of the 2nd Air Divisions B:24 liberators was carried out. This airfield was a former RAF base, and so has the C type hangars and RAF domestic buildings, as well as the T2 type hangers comprising the maintanence depot to the south of the field. Watton was returned to RAF use post war, but sadly the hangers have now dissapeared under a modern housing development.

Attlebridge 1944, USAAF, Norfolk, England
(Category: FSX > Scenery)
0.12Mb (553 downloads)
Attlebridge was home to the 466th Heavy Bomb group between March 1944 and July 1944. Like so many USAAF bases in Norfolk at that time, this group operated the B:24 Liberator. Today the runways house poultry sheds. Again, this is a basic scenery which I hope to improve upon in time. Attlebridge had a navigational aid known as a "buncher" beacon. These had a 25 mile range and were used to assemble the bombers using what was known as a "racetrack pattern". I have depicted Attlebridge's "buncher 35" as an NDB with a 25 mile range. The frequency is 392.00.

RAF Downham Market 1944, Norfolk, England
(Category: FSX > Scenery)
0.12Mb (524 downloads)
RAF Downham Market operated Lancasters, Stirlings and Mosquitos as well as housing Horsa Gliders.Today, most of the airfield has returned to agriculture, although a few buildings of the period remain. A large road now cuts right across the airfield, so to avoid any nasty surprises on take off, ensure your traffic sliders are set to zero! As with all my current retro 40s sceneries, this is a rather basic but correctly positioned rendition.

Horsham st.Faith 1944, USAAF, England
(Category: FSX > Scenery)
0.12Mb (741 downloads)
USAAF Horsham st. Faith was home to the 458th bomb group during WW2. Horsham st. Faith was previously used by the RAF, and now serves as Norwich Airport. In 1944, the airfield had become a heavy bomber base with concrete runways, and the aircraft flown from this airfield at that time was the B:24 Liberator. I have "shrunk" the city of Norwich to a more appropiate size for the era, and if you have installed IanPs "Rackheath" then you'll start to get an idea how close these fields were!I hope a later update of this quite basic scenery will include barrage balloons over the nearby city of Norwich (I need to research locations).

North Pickenham 1944 USAAF, Norfolk, England
(Category: FSX > Scenery)
0.13Mb (514 downloads)
USAAF North Pickenham was home to the 491st, and the 492nd bomb groups during WW2.Due to heavy operational losses, the 492nd was replaced by the 491st from April 1944 to May 1945. Both groups used the B:24 Liberator. After WW2 North Pickenham was handed over to the Royal Air Force and during the 1950s was a major "Thor Missile" site. Now the old airfield is home to a large windfarm and the runways used as hardstandings for Turkey sheds!
