There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Newtown Park (aka Lymington ALG)
A new entry has been added to Add-Ons Library, category FS 2004 Scenery
Description: Here's another of my AFCAD / EZ scenery productions;
This is Newtown Park private airstrip at Lymington, Hampshire UK; was originally opened as an Advanced Landing Ground prior to D-DAY; the residents being
P47 Thunderbolts of 50th FG 9th AF, USAAF , latterly the site was bought and restored with the 1 remaining Blister hangar being used by the owner ;the late Charles Burnett III of Newtown Park house ( a heir to Selfridges) ; to store his military vehicle collection .. the Stalwart is there in real life but a little sad after being set on fire by vandals . The airstrip was also used for ww2 themed fly ins and gatherings to show off the military vehicle collection; if you search the web there's a photo of a Hurricane parked outside the blister hangar.
I've included the ww2 site plans if anyone wants to expand on it ; feel free
