EG54 Bruntinthorpe & X3HU Husbands Bosworth
Opened in 1942 Bruntingthorpe has served both the RAF and USAF, the latter using the B-47 Statojet. The base closed in 1962 and is now home to the air worthy Avro Vulcan XH558.
RAF Husbands Bosworth was operational between 1943 & 1946. The site has now been returned to agricultural use with the exception of the Gliding School and East Midlands Police Air Support Unit, (also modeled).

X5LS RAF Lissett.
Opened in 1943 this Halifax Bomber Base on the Yorkshire coast of England suffered many operational losses. I was asked to make this model by the son of one of the pilots who flew from RAF Lissett. I am pleased to have been able to help. My thanks also to Ted Andrews who has again supplied the model buildings and to Alphasim for making the Halifax aircraft freely available via Avsim.

X5KB Kirkbride.
A complete model of this former WW2 airfield. All models have been custom made by Ted Andrews with additional work by Gerry Winskill. Includes AI files for aircraft and road traffic.
CIX Members are welcome to add the additional features to their own version of this model, however, please note that this afcad file uses the code X5KB and not KB10

UK11 (X4YR) Rufforth Airfield.
Another former WW2 Airfield, today it serves as two airfields in one. The Yorkshire Gliding Club function in the Western area of the airfield whilst the Rufforth Microlight Centre operates in the Eastern area. As the airfield had a single runway designated UK11 in the default simulator this version uses the default designation for Gliding and X4YR for the Microlight Centre. The UK safetycom frequency is shared between them.

X2GC Greenham Common Airbase
Located outside Newbury in southern England this airfield was used by the USAF. In 1958 there was a fire, allegedly involving the destruction of a nuclear weapon. Details are still to some extent classified but many theories abound. The 501st Tactical Missile Wing moved in with Cruise Missiles in 1983 but these were all removed in 1991. The base closed in 1993 and sold for the purpose of returning the land to public use in 1997.
This model is based on the outlines of the runway and taxiways still visible today in aerial photography.
