This all looks excellent...
Now IF Merauke (Western Papua) is included (I see it on the google map in a post above) then that'd be grand (still be grand without it too).
Several RAAF Sqns operated out of Merauke including 12 Sqn which operated, amongst other types, the Vultee Vengence (Later changing up to B24 Liberators). Mr Trevor Sampson, a very good friend of my late father, was stationed at Merauke with 12 Sqn during the war. He is now approximately 87 & has passed on much interesting information relative to 12 Sqn activities at Merauke to me in casual conversation.
As it so happens I enjoy mission building & do so for the WTE group that I fly with. Having nostalgic links with Mr Sampson encourages the opportunity to create more Australian involved missions for our BATTLE FOR AUSTRALIA series from the likes of Niel Lowes 'Darwin' map & the possibility of Northern QLD as well as Papua New Guinea...
Anyway, hats off to all you map builders, great efforts!
Cheers
