It is true that some campaigns, such as Jumo's Western Front campaigns, use Eastern Front maps as fakes... This is unfortunately the case because there are few maps available for the Western Front.
However, newer DGen campaigns use more of the recent maps such as the Africa map, the NWE map, the Ardennes and Normandy maps (this is the case for my French Wings stuff), even though this is still not suitable in many cases. That is an old issue with the sim. For instance, I use Crimea as a fake for Sicily/Med, which is not that great, but it is better than nothing IMHO.
When you see the map next to the briefing, that is an inconvenience. When you actually launch the mission and fly, that works OK, so have plenty of nice flights!
