Yea certainly...but the topology of the map is bad so it's an utopia to believe your are flying over a 39-45 world. when i started to populate harbors and fields i realise how much there is differences between reallity and this map. I just want to make the flight looks real even if it take distances to what Kyushu was as that period. For that someone should redo the map since zero with satellite datas and historical plans.
I don't find many WW2 pics from Kyushu cities in general but i found these 2 for exemple :
Kagoshima here
Fukuoka here
If you compare with google earth data today there is not many differences...These are big cities, they grew up after war but there isn't fundamental changes for habors. Cities grew up in direction to fields. It's the same for most of european cities.
