looking for a scaled Black Sea map

[fitness88]

I'm looking for a mileage scaled Black Sea map with runway symbols and names.

 

Thank you.

Like that one?

No more like this but with mileage scaling, unless someone knows how many miles from one grid line to the next.

I wish we get a new TC1 version with the Tbilissi area....

So you need to know how to convert latitude and longitude to miles? Am I getting that right?

No I understand that. My photo is a static grid map I just wanted to have some mileage scale to go along with it. What would be handy is if someone had scaled mileage to alternate airfields. If I don't find it I will spend some time and do it myself and will then post it.

I tried to build one, but didn't get very far:

OP: The grid looks like 10km x 10km

[fitness88]

Can anyone please tell me what the kilometer distance is from one grid line to the one in the next box?

You have a ruler in the Mission Editor will give you all the measurements you need for flight planning

 

The answer is 54 Nm across:)

The further you delve, the more complex it gets, but this is what you're looking at there:

Each super-square is 100,000m on a side (54 Nm, as Cibit said). Figuring out the rest should be pretty simple.

 

:)

 

Edit: You can also specify that DCS use MGRS throughout via the Misc. tab (I think) of the settings screen.

I tried using the ruler in 1.5 but couldn't get it to work.

Thanks to you all for the info.

The ruler still works in 1.5 ... sort of. It just doesn't show the line. The pertinent information (distance, bearing) still shows up on the header area.

My screens where taken in 1.5.2 I tried to remove layers via the map options and the ruler function disappeared, when adding the layers back it came on again. try map options tab in ME

I take it that is east to west what about north to south?

 

edit:

got the ruler working...54nm x 54nm [on the map though it doesn't look like a perfect square]
