Jack Sawyer Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 Doing a test to see if the refineries are ok. Adam's new PTA shader. Also, in the last two, there's an airfield nearby and it looks wrong, can anyone confirm this? Thanks so much. So I tried the Waco, same thing.

VH-KDK Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 Great shots Jack. Nice to see that T-38 in the air again. The airfield is disused so no need to worry. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAF_Llandow Some sad history too. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Llandow_air_disaster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And thanks for that wiki info, I'll have a look now. I have flown here a bunch and never noticed it. I'll be darned! I read it, I was sorry to see so many souls perished. Very sad day.

Adam. Thank you Adam, that was very kind of you. Martyn send a different link. It's sad about those poor people and also sad about the decommissioned airfield. I was stationed at RAF Upper Heyford and now it's been deactivated. I looked at a satellite view and the runways had literally thousands of cars parked on them and I have no idea why.

Might explain all the cars! http://www.raf-upper-heyford.org/Today.html Kev Thanks Kev, I am gonna go to this link right now. I have always been keen on UH. I think there's one in the sim but it's sad to see such a busy place like that deactivated. I was there for three years working F-111's. Back then all I had was an Atari 800 and the original Bruce Artwick flight simulator and I thought it was the best thing I ever saw. Sad, sad, sad, I miss it. That dorm they tore down? I lived in it for three years. That AV store, bought many a piece of stereo gear there. Still doesn't mention why so many cars on the runway though. What a great pace to live and work and it was my springboard to Europe. I really miss the UK, I'd go back and live there in a minute of I could.
