I see what you did there. I'm somewhat a man of culture myself...

 

Is there a way of dialling back the amount of Pam An 747s and BA 727s?

It seems like the entire Pam An 747 fleet is in Europe (well, they were part of the Civil Reserve Air Fleet, so...).
BA never had 727s - the only 727s in BA-colours were operated by Comair in South Africa.
Also, the "Negus" livery (1974-1985'ish) would make more sense for the time-frame (HS Trident):

The large (nowadays) taxiway inthe west at Düsseldorf Intl used to be a runway during the map timeframe:

The large building at the southern end of the crossing rwy as shown on the dev screenshot wasn't there before the devastating fire in 1996.

It's super great to get highway landing strips finally but I do agree - the realism of them is somewhat hampered by the rather narrow obtacle clearence and the width of the highways use for these strips. At the very least the trees need to be offset by some safety margin on the sides to make them feel a bit more realistic. Hope this can be rectified. Otherwise looking great and thanks for working hard on expanding the map

Wow, very impressive!
With the Choyna air base, the SU-27 finally has a home too.
@MAESTR0 
I really like the picture of the Ennepe Dam. Are there any plans to correct the Lake Eder (Edersee) on the current map?
It is also a reservoir with a dam that is used for power generation and is one of the largest reservoirs in Germany.
Incidentally, the dam was one of those destroyed during Operation Chastise in May 1943.

Also hope, there will be more of the reservoirs added with proper dam installations. Hopefully some lakes of the wish list will be added

Of course, I hope so too, but Lake Eder is particularly close to my heart because it's practically on my doorstep.

@MAESTR0 Malmö Airport should be called Sturup Airport instead (or maybe Malmö-Sturup Airport), it wasn't called Malmö Airport until 2000s.

nullAlso, see the image. I don't know if the highlighted object is meant to be Turning Torso - hard to see but it's the right general direction; if it is, it probably also shouldn't be there since it was built in 2005. And there's certainly nothing that big in Svedala either.

Not exactly. You're off by more than 25 degrees.
