This one has been sitting around for ages, thanks to my general lack of functionality and operational capability, however I've now finally finished the readme file and uploaded RAF King's Cliffe (X3KC) to my website.
Originally opened as a grass surface satellite field for the very nearby RAF Wittering, in 1940, King's Cliffe / Kings Cliffe / Kingscliffe (it appears to be a 'take your pick' on the name!) was used by a number of Spitfire squadrons, plus the 347th FS visiting with their P-39s prior to moving to North Africa. Zemke's Wolfpack made a brief guest appearance with their P-47s prior to the airfield being formally handed over to the 8th Air Force and being populated by the "Loco Busters" of the 20th Fighter Group, bringing P-38 Lightnings, then P-51B/D/K Mustangs to the Northamptonshire skies. They also, rather belatedly, finally got hard runways installed for them.
This scenery is set during the 20th FG's tenure, with not just the original panhandle dispersals, but also twin-engine fighter revetments and a large number of Extra-Over Blister hangars for your aircraft to occupy. I've also included a SODE file for runway caravans and the landing direction "T".
You can find it here - http://www.ianpsdarkcorner.co.uk/fli...-kings-cliffe/ - have fun!
