we are fairly new.
Heres a couple of screenies.
Temporary Paint used for the F16 until our painter finishes it.
Spanish CN235's very close to finish, just need clearance from the author of the paints, to let us use them.
Thanks,

Hi Macc,
Did you see my post about Cervia airbase (LIPC) in Italy? Since you are about to release an Italian AI package I was wondering if you can answer my question:
I found out that the MAIW afcad for LIPC is quite different from what I can see in Google Earth. In the MAIW version (and in another version on avsim) the aprons are north of the runway, while on Google Earth they are on the south side. I can't find any information on the web, but in Google Earth you can also see the runway is closed for reconstruction.
Do you have any idea about the current layout of the airbase?
Much appreciated,
David

David,
I know your question was direted to someone else, but....
Both Virtual Earth and Yahoo satellite pictures confirm that the aprons are indeed on the south side of the runway. This is definitely a case of photos not lying.
When viewing pics on any of the "free" satellite services, remember that they tend to be undated, so there's no telling how old the pics are (a good example is Changi Intl in Singapore - GE shows land reclamation to the south probably around 2005, but some of the clickable photos show the area as it was in 2006 as viewed from planes flying over). That runway construction evident in the Googe Earth picture isn't there in a Virtual Earth image.
Just my thoughts.
Edited to add: Coincidentally, I just ran across an article tonight that talks about "'outdated information' used by Google Earth, which is now four years old".

Everyone's reply is more then welcome Ford 
Italy retired their Starfighters in 2004. I read that they started the recontruction at Cervia right after the last 104 left, so I figure that the Google Earth image is from 2005. I don't believe they would move all infrastructure to the north of the base, but the MAIW AFCADs (usualy quite accurate) put me up with doubts.

David
