"The Channel was not just water. It was the front line —
Defended from Devon, patrolled from Scilly, steadfast until D-Day dawned."

— The story behind the bundle

Three Locations Included

Each Place. A Chapter of History.

Present-day airports and airfields whose wartime past runs deep. Every location fully hand-crafted for MSFS.

Location 01 — Devon, England
Bolt Head Airfield
Former RAF Fighter Base
MSFS 2020 / 2024
Bolt Head Airfield

Perched above the cliffs at Salcombe, Bolt Head was an active RAF base during WWII — Spitfires flew from this very strip on air-sea rescue missions over the English Channel. Today it's a private grass airfield, faithfully recreated in extraordinary detail. Your starting point.

Location 02 — Isles of Scilly
Isles of Scilly
Coastal Command Patrol Base
MSFS 2020 / 2024
Isles of Scilly

Britain's most remote inhabited archipelago. During WWII, RAF Coastal Command flew anti-submarine patrols from here across the Western Approaches — the waters where the Battle of the Atlantic was decided. Fly the islands in unprecedented detail, from St Mary's Airport to the Wolf Rock Lighthouse.

Location 03 — Guernsey, Channel Islands
Guernsey Airport
Liberated May 9, 1945
MSFS 2024
Guernsey Airport EGJB

The only British territory occupied by Nazi Germany — for five years, from 1940 to 1945. Guernsey was liberated one day after VE Day. Landing here is the final leg of this Channel journey. A highly detailed recreation of EGJB with custom buildings, accurate ground layout and dynamic lighting.

Flying Iron Spitfire Livery

41 Squadron MB882 · Spitfire Mk XII · Flt Lt Peter Graham · 1944

This repaint for the Flying Iron Spitfire represents 41 Squadron's MB882 — an aircraft flown by Flt Lt Peter Graham from Bolt Head Airfield in 1944. Recreating it offers a small glimpse into the world these pilots knew during a very demanding chapter of the war.

Bolt Head was a quiet-looking place, set on the cliffs of South Devon, but during WWII it carried a responsibility far outweighing its size. As a satellite of RAF Exeter, the airfield supported fighter operations watching over the south coast and the shipping lanes of the Channel. Pilots faced short-notice scrambles, heading out low over the water to intercept threats or protect returning aircraft — rough weather, unpredictable visibility, and a constant workload.

The Spitfire Mk XII was well suited to this flying. Its Griffon engine gave strong low-altitude performance and quick acceleration — something pilots valued when they needed to be airborne with little warning. MB882 would have seen this work regularly, and imagining Flt Lt Graham taking off from Bolt Head in 1944 adds a layer of character that goes beyond markings and paint.

The Suggested Route

Fly The Channel

Three locations that form a single unforgettable journey — history woven into every waypoint.

01
Depart Bolt Head Airfield
Former RAF Fighter & Rescue Base — Devon Coast

Climb out over the cliffs where Spitfires once scrambled to cover Channel crossings. Salcombe Estuary beneath you, the open sea ahead. Head south-west toward Scilly.

02
Transit — Isles of Scilly
Coastal Command Patrol Territory — Western Approaches

Land at St Mary's, explore the archipelago. These were the last British islands seen by Allied aircrew departing on Atlantic patrols. Circle the Wolf Rock Lighthouse before pushing south-east toward the Channel Islands.

03
Arrive Guernsey Airport EGJB
Liberated British Territory — Channel Islands

Cross the Channel and touch down on the island that spent five years under Nazi occupation. Flying into EGJB today, you land where liberating forces arrived in May 1945. The end of the route. The end of the story.

04
Continue to Normandy
60 Miles South — The D-Day Beaches

From Guernsey, Normandy is just 60 miles south. The D-Day beaches — Utah, Omaha, Gold, Juno, Sword — are within easy reach. No addon required. Just the history beneath your wings and the coast that changed the world ahead of you.
