Goose Green is modelled, it's just not visible in the F10 map. The smaller airstrip at Pebble Island is present (and depicted more like an FOB), but the larger one is not. I'm unsure which were used by the Argentinians during the raid on Pebble island (perhaps both?), but images from the Falklands War appear to show Argentinian aircraft on the larger one.

There’s a straightish area of grass about 5km east, but very difficult to pick out in GE. I’ve overflown the smaller field - would be a challenge for most fixed wing (except Yak & Harrier??)

About half a km north of Pebble Island Settlement, there are 3 grass runways; a ~2200 ft runway facing north-west/south-east, a ~950 ft runway perpendicular to the first (facing north-east/south-west) and a ~970 ft runway further to the south, facing east/west). Unfortunately there's a building currently blocking the south-eastern side of the 2200 ft runway. See here.

Just had a fly around in the little Yak… it’s definitely possible to land and take off from the “proper” Pebble Island field, but someone needs to mow the grass and put the white marker stones back As @Northstar98 states above, there is a building at the eastern end of the longest runway - a bit unnerving to be accelerating towards this on takeoff! The little field that Razbam has worked up as Pebble Island airfield is very unconvincing. Google Earth imagery shows no roads or buildings and the feature looks partially flooded. I’m still of the opinion that this is a peat cut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northstar98 Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 Wikimapia seems to think its an airfield: Though I've found no images of it, as depicted in DCS World. But this image (showing an IA 58 and a T-34) is clearly at the larger one (towards the southern end, the runway the aircraft are parked on being the smaller one running east to west): This image looks much closer to the coastline, so I'm more inclined to say the larger one: This is also clearly the larger one: Also note how the airstrip seems to be left more-or-less as is, with no new structures. Either way, it looks like I'll be using some scenery remove object triggers to remove the smaller site.

rkk01 Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 There is actually another grass runway visible between the two - I suspect the wikimapia ref should be to this one… the two areas that raise my suspicions about the modelled SE field are: 1. Dark colouration in west - looks like flooding??? Which would imply a depression / lower ground level within an excavation 2. Striations / linear grain within the terrain - looks like the texture you’d get from peat cutting, and there are similar patterns immediately NE of Pebble Island Lodge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
