The site at Raf Leuchars was first used for Aviation
as far back as 1911, but the Fleet Air Arm started operations here in 1918. During World War 2,
Coastal Command used Beaufighters and Beauforts
as well as Hudsons and Mosquitoes.
Post war, The RAF operated Meteors, Vampires,
Javelins, and Hunters from the airfield.
This was followed by a long period as the Northern
base of the Lightning and an equally long period
with F4 Phantoms, before they were replaced
by todays F3 Tornado's.
This scenery is set in the latter days of Phantom operations.
A free update with F3 Tornado's is now available.

The scenery contains 4 C1 type hangars,
General Service(Belfast) hangars, 22 Hardened
Aircraft Shelters, control tower, technical and domestic buildings, Bomb Dump, static F4 Phantoms and
Canberra's, 4 dynamic aircraft flying the circuit, and ground service vehicles.
The buildings and layout of the technical, and domestic sites are intended to recognise the fact that this type of
station could not function without the support of the many trades and functions such as catering, stores, and administration etc.
These buildings and layout are not intended to be an
accurate representation of this particular station.
