Yes please,Bapaume-Grévillers was such a key Luftwaffe airfield and especially in 1944 were at 11.35am the Fw 190's of 7./Jg26 were scrambled to intercept the raid on the Amiens prison ie RAMROD 564 or as it was most commonly known Operation Jericho.

 

Seeing that ED has already created the prison for an up and coming patch for the Channel map to compliment the new Mosquito which is nearing it's release,it would be the icing on the cake to have this key LF base created......just think of the missions one could create with this plethora of historical locations.

 

This definitely has my vote 👍

Yes, the channel map desperately needs some work to make it viable for this mission and many more. 

 

It is a fantastic map, it just needs refinement.

Just curious, have you used that resource to check the accuracy of airfields on the Normandy map? I mean like actual layout/buildings/roads/orientation. I ask because I do not have access to DCS World at the moment, but plan to use it when I get back. This is an incredible resource, thanks for sharing.

 

Just look up the airfield at Baugé for example, and I was able to not only see the airfield's orientation with hanger placement, but the town itself including its major roads.
