FS2004 – Erding Air Base

FS2004 – Erding Air Base, in southern Germany. Erding was turned over to Allied control after the second world war and served for many years as home to first the U.S. 440th Fighter-Interceptor Squadron, and then the 52nd Tactical Fighter Group. When the 52nd withdrew in 1971 the base served as a rotation point for various NATO units finally becoming a repair and upgrade center for the then-new Typoon Eurofighter. Serving Southern Germany for over 50 years, the base now faces an uncertain future due to plans for a high-speed rail connection through the property. Scenery includes custom 3D objects as well as seasonal photo-groundcover. By John Stinstrom.
