All hail to the Luftwaffe.

Is there any way to tell where the air bases are located?

If you open up the .LND file (from the Campaign folder) in the mission editor, you can see all the land installations, including the air bases.

I'm a little lost!!!

If I open my mission Editor folder, all that is shown is either "Icons" or "Locations".

If I open the campaign file it shows " Campaign_LND.mis" . Is that the one I'm looking for? If so what program do I need to open it up so I can view it?

Yep Campaign_LND.mis is the one
To see it you will need the mission editor
You can open the file in notepad

Looks like this





The yellow circles are the radius range of each airbase

The LND contains all naval bases\cities\gun emplacements as well as air bases so tis a bit hard to see the wood for the trees sometimes

i saw this in the med near malta

A little convoy of two destroyers and two cargo, i was ready for the attack but the destroyers spoted my periscope and started an depth charge attack.

two big planes (fw-condors ..perhaps) dropped some bombs to the merchants, damaging one, later three waves of stukas finished the convoy, including the destroyers.

Just think of all that renown you lost to those flyboys.........
