Theoretically, yes............ In practice, however, there seems to be a limit in the map size that IL2 will load, of around 14400 x 14400 pixels for map_c- anything larger apparently won't load. At 1:1 scale this translates to, at 50 metres per px, 720 x 720 km. So to make a single map of the whole PTO it would be necessary to remove the size limit, which is most probably hard-coded into the sim. Next, it would take several years to make such a map- the Slot map took several months of hard work so taking the extra land mass such a map would have into account you would need a LOT more time- it's the detailing of the land mass that consumes many hours. Finally, how quickly would you want such a map to load??????????????
The alternative is to stick to the 14400 x 14400 pixels size and compress the PTO to fit......... and probably end up with a scale of 1:10 or worse, which is clearly not practical unless the planes etc are also scaled down........... resulting in a new sim.
