Although a little bit of “artistic license” has been used to recreate the airfield, it is an accurate representation of the era, with even the runway – which was aligned north to south and created problems for real-world pilots – being accurately reproduced.
The operational night lighting and the dynamic street lighting offer even more realism.
All flying stopped in 1945, with the airfield being placed on Care and Maintenance, although it did enjoy a brief return to active status between 1958 and 1963 when it housed Thor Inter-Continental Ballistic Missiles (ICBMs).
During this time, the No 104 Squadron was formed, operating under the RAF Hemswell Wing. They were disbanded when the missiles were withdrawn from the airfield.

About Team SDB
Team SDB, a joint effort from developers based in the UK and USA but primarily consisting of Mike Dews in the UK and Frank Safranek in the USA have been developing flight simulator scenery add-ons for over a decade. Originally beginning with work published by Alphasim (Phil Perrott) also known for Virtavia, they now release independantly.
Team SDB generally focus on UK/US airfields, airbases and military precenses and bring them to life as scenery add-ons in the simulators. They have released many titles that have been well received by the community compatible with a range of simulators such FS2004, FSX and Prepar3D. They also have other projects releases such as aircraft carrier add-ons compatible with the latest sims.
Team SDB also hope to remaster and release their scenery add-on portfolio for the new Microsoft Flight Simulator (MSFS) 2020 release.
