I am trying to find some information for McConnell AFB for a possible up-coming scenery. Does anyone know any good links for information on USAF Bases?

Hey Bone184,
This site is helping me quite a bit in designing AFCADs. And if the satellite view is good, you can make out every building on the ground.

Give it a try and see what you think.

Just do a search for the ICAO or Base name. I find Air Nav is great, has layout diagrams, facilities data and best of all links to Terra Server and Virtual Earth. Virtual earth has a 3D mode that lets you see a ground level, any angle views and even street names. IMHO virtual earth is the very best resource for building scenery.
