Beschreibung
Royal Air Force Upper Heyford or more simply RAF Upper Heyford is a former Royal Air Force station located 5 miles (8 km) north-west of Bicester near the village of Upper Heyford, Oxfordshire, England. In the Second World War the airfield was used by RAF Bomber Command. During the Cold War, Upper Heyford was one of the former RAF bases chosen to house the United States Air Force Strategic Air Command (SAC) nuclear-capable bombers on 90-day TDY (Temporary Duty) deployments until 1959, SAC Reflex Alert deployments from 1959 until 1965, from 1966 United States Air Forces in Europe (USAFE) tactical reconnaissance aircraft, and from 1970 General Dynamics F-111 Aardvark strike aircraft.
I have had to use the orignal ICAO code with the adittion of a B on the end as its code has been allocated to another airfield.
EGUAB is what i have used.
this is a complete rework from scratch as it did not exist in the sim apart from a satailte image so everything you see i have added, it is currently used for car storage as you ban see in the before image, so i have had to vover up sections of grass with new grass as it was filled with cars, theres still more to do but the main part of the base is done, i have more work to do where the houses and shops were.
I have used assets from th efollowing packs

Any change you will make some realistic german bases like wittmund, buchel, norvenich, schleswig-jagel etc? And maybe some old ones also like eggebeck, pferdsfeld etc. :)

RAF Coltishall
RAF Coltishall is a simulation add-on for Microsoft Flight Simulator that recreates the former Royal Air Force base, specifically during the 2003/04 period when it housed the Jaguar force. While the scenery is a work in progress and not yet fully complete, users can still operate from the base. Future updates are planned, and although designed for MSFS2020, it may function in MSFS2024, pending further testing.

I've created a landing challenge for the GKS F111-E at the field - https://flightsim.to/file/79394/upper-heyford-landing-challenge-gks-f111-e
I was unable to get anything from the ILS however, tried several aircraft but not a peep, all flags off, and I can retune to the Kidlington frequency and go do an good ILS landing at EGTK so I think there is something not right. This is with a fresh install just downloaded.
As magnetic variation has changed a lot since the ILS was documented the heading now should be 260 BTW.
Also it would really enhance operations using the airfield if we could get the TACAN re-instated too - 84X - any chance?
There are some great period approach charts and maps at https://konbriefing.com/mad/approach-charts/uk-united-kingdom/upper-heyford-air-base.html
