The Blue Nosed Bastards of Bodney have embarked on a project to recreate the airfields and atmosphere of the European Theatre of Operation for IL2, with never before seen accuracy, in a new Cross Channel Map.
If you want an idea of their level of ambition, just look at these two screenshots. First, a historical shot of Westhampnett RAF airfield in 1940.
And here, a work-in-progress shot of the same airfield as created by the team from the 352nd.

"Nice job of getting down to the basics - love your choice of a cover!" Col. Clarence 'Bud' Anderson
"I have enjoyed reading angels and airspeed, it should prove good reading for all interested in combat tactics and their application related to the fluid air environment and state of technology in WWII years. All the best as you make it available." - Col. Charles McGee - Tuskegee Airman
This just keeps getting better and better. The airfields are terrific. I'm thrilled that this sim is being modded by so many talented people. It really needed this shot in the arm, in my opinion.

stuff they should have been doing themselves for the 250+ we paid for this whole game. I have to say im one of the few who didnt even try the sound mod or any of them. But looks like the community is doing a fantastic job of improving the game which it desperately needed to keep interest in.
