About This File
Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany.
This is a relatively small airbase in the Eifel in Germany, in between Koblenz and Spangdahlem.
It is home to the Taktisches Luftwaffengeschwader (TaktLwG) 33, operating the Panavia Tornado, and the USAF 702 Munitions Support Squadron.
Since 2007 this base is the only German base hosting nuclear weapons (B61).
The base consists of a main runway (2500x45 excl stopway & displaced thrsh) and a parallel taxiway. The main apron is quite small and suits fighters and general aviation. Large aircraft usually park on the parallel taxiway, for example at the run-up bay at the northern end. The fighters based here use the "loops" of dispersals on the south-east and south-west sides of the base. The QRA area is located in the northern loop. (I have named the ATC TaxiRoutes for the loops LE LW and LN, parallel taxiway is P, and the other taxiways A to F from north to south.)
This scenery is partly a conversion of my own MSFS version, however it was expanded and edited big time for x-plane 10.
