Tuddenham and Bottisham airfields seem to have been transposed - Bottisham is definitely closer to Cambridge. Obviously not vital...except my nursery school was in one of the old Bottisham airbase buildings! Also, it was a USAF field for most of its life.

Hi - I know it's a minor point but if the map is ever updated...

RAF Fairwood Common was to the West of Swansea not East so Hex 65,172 would be a better location than 67,172 . I know as I was born and grew up in Swansea - and my grandfather was in RAF ground control there from 1941.
