80 new airfield guides!

[pjotrtje]

Since our last update of November 2006 the Scramble Airfield Guides have gone through another big expansion. And most of that was done with your help, providing pictures or descriptions. For this we are grateful, and hope to continue expanding!

Currently we have detailed descriptions of as many as 447 airfields online. No other magazine or website offers so many descriptions to the enthusiast, of airfields big and small, high or low. Wherever you go on holiday, a good chance you will pass one of our listed airfields!

Great job

Small question: is it perhaps possible to add the coordinates of the various positions
In 51°27'01"N 005°22'28"E format or in Google Earth format (.kmz)
Like the Eindhoven locations http://www.ewas.nl/Spottersplaatsen.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Hi Joris,

That's a good idea, and to be honest: we're currently studying a development just like that. But, as this is a major job for all 447 airfield guides, we're looking into a somewhat more automated system, which at the same time will give enhanced functionality for those with satnav.

Keep watching this space!
