Re: Furstenau/Handrup Airfield

Achmer is barely recognizable, Hesepe is disappearing (nice bunch of open craters in the middle of the triangle by the way: that is a rarity!).
Only Vören survives better because of its former status as a Nike base...Handorf is now almost only identifiable as a Nike base until you notice the runways now replaced with ruway-shaped copses (other such examples at Marx or Bad Zwischenahn...it seems it is done on purpose to repel visitors because of too many UXD)...
I would say the outcome is not good for future interested parties (try to find what is left of Döberitz...it is appaling).

Better going to Persan-Beaumont, Vitry-en-Artois, Abbeville, Achiet, Audembert, Rely and so many others...in France!

Cordially (and too much chauvinistic I am sure)
