    Favourite Military Base

    Every now and again it's fun to throw these threads out there to get ideas for people who are looking for a place to fly their military planes/jets from

    I fly out of these the most

    Ants Tindal in the top end of Aussie, short hop to Darwin and good for a extended flight down to Amberley

    MAIW Lakenheath is another I love to fly out of as it gives Europe coverage
    You take it easy.. and have a nice day

    RAF Valley is a hoot. In the middle(ish) of the (UK) country and there are the Welsh hills top play with in Hawks, Hunters and Tonkas. Other than that Comox is my fave haunt.

    RAF Lossiemouth in Scotland is my favorite, you've also got Kinloss about 10 to 20 miles away.

    I like the stuff that Jim Dhaenens makes, and it's free. For current jets, my current favorite is NAS Fallon, Nevada, by Jim. Until he makes an FSX version of NAS Lemoore, that is... For WW-II, any base along the Solomon Islands, by Roger-Wilco-66.

    In no real order
    NAS Fallon
    NAS Lemoore
    NAS North Island
    NAWS China Lake
    NAF El Centro

    Kind of a west coast Navy thing going on here. I'm still waiting for a proper NAWS Pt Mugu to be built.

    Striker, listen, and you listen close: flying a plane is no different than riding a bicycle, just a lot harder to put baseball cards in the spokes.

    RAF St Mawgan. Memories of camping at Trevarrian Holiday Park off the runway end and Nimrods at 7am taking off on full power.

    MoD Boscombe Down. Local to me, interesting history, huge runway and I have flown from there 3 times in real life

    HMS Ark Royal :P
    Followed by RNAS Lossimouth, RNAS Yeovelton and RAF Leuchars.
    If flying an American bird MCAS Mirramar or CFB Cold Lake.
    Once the Virtavia and or Razbam A-4's are out I guess I'll be spending a lot of time around RNAS Nowra and HMAS Melbourne.
