Hi there!

I’d love to join this flight tomorrow; I did a quick orientation check just now and realized that some of the fields (Stradbelly being the first) are not really recognizable as landing fields in the default scenery. Do you guys fly with a scenery addon?

Cheers,
Schermvlieger

Thanks for the feedback. This was actually a plan from MSFS2020 that we flew in Tiger Moths. I removed all content from the Community folder and the airports still exist in MSFS2024, however I also had trouble finding some of them.

If they can’t be identified, we will simply overfly them.

Regards, Paul
