Well done! It certainly is a mind-bender to cross-correlate those three files. But there is a fourth file to check/cross correlate. When Pat's upgrade to Bob first came out, I did the same exercise to make sure all the airbase facilities, cutscenes airbase lists (don't forget to check those), qclocations and global layer all matched up. It is not necessary for all airbases to be in the qclocations.xml, but otherwise the files need to be internally consistent. You can't have an airbase listed in the qclocations file, that is not also listed for ALL flyable nationalities in the cutscenes.xml. Checking that takes a lot of work! Otherwise if for example you want to fly a Polish pilot out of Hawkinge, and the correct Hawkinge facility file is not listed under Poland section of the cutscenes.xml, then your UI will probably freeze/crash.
