FS2004 Scenery--Wunstorf Air Base, Germany. Wunstorf Air Base was originally opened in 1936 for the National Socialist Luftwaffe. Like most German airfields it did arduous duty during the Second World War. When the allies finally concluded their occupation the field was eventually returned to German control and hosted its first German transport unit flying the Nord Atlas. This aircraft was replaced in 1971 with the current Transall 160 aircraft. With the recent adoption of the Airbus A400M by the Luftwaffe, Wunstorf is undergoing some significant remodeling including lengthening of runway 8-26 as well as construction of two new modern hangars and associated support buildings. This scenery is intended to be used with the great Transall 160 package by Ray Parker (GAF_C-160_TRANSALL.ZIP) but will of course accomodate any aircraft and is in itself a complete scenery package.
