The first one is relative to Finnish and Soviet airfields used during the winter and continuation wars (Baltic and Barents sea areas). Dowload link:

(after installing Google Earth, double click on the kmz file to see arfields' locations and names on the world map; yellow icons = Finnish, red icons = Soviet).
The second project is much more complete, as it includes most of the know Soviet airfiled, as well as a good number of other European and Asian airfields used by various WWII belligerents. Each nation is denoted by its flag. Most airfields got notes (mostly in Russian  , some in English). Download links:

http://www.sukhoi.ru/forum/attachmen...3&d=1377568597
(copy the 'icons' folder from the first link into the Google Earth's installation folder, and double click on the kmz file from the second link).
At this point I believe we have more Russian airfield locations than we need  |
This is great guys - many thanks

Still to do: connecting the aircraft I have listed yesterday to the airfields that they historically were based in.
