Thanks again for the encouragement. Big Grin

I've now completed work on Sakishima-Gunto and Yonaguni-Shima.

Yonaguni is a small island halfway between Formosa and Sakishima with a single landing strip. I dont have an original photo of the runway but luckily the abandoned strip is still just visible in the satellite image from google maps.

I'm currently doing lots of work detailing the Formosa coastline. Formosa is big and it will take me a while to get it all finished. I've got a dozen airfields to create along with a number of towns and cities. As I've got so much original research material I feel I need to get it right.

Rato town and it's train station.

Supermax, Taroko Gorge north of Sincheng.

It's not meant to be an exact match for the real world coast, just to catch a flavour of it. Big Grin
