Have a look at EGOE, EGOS, EGNR and EGWC and see how you get on. I think they are fairly close to Stoke-on-Trent 😉

I found this site which catalogues all airfields in the UK - open and closed.

Hope you find something on here.

Thanks , it seems the closest ones to me that are actually in fs9 are

EGOE Ternhill --23 miles away according to google earth's road direction function.

EGBM Tatenhill--30 miles away according to goole earth's road direction function.

There is a closer one, Seighford but it's not in fs9 .

Thanks to you both. cheers 🙂

Have you tried the UK2000 series of British airports? Although they are payware they have free demo downloads at their site and they are not all International. They cover a lot of general aviation airfields all over England and Wales and i believe the designer (Gary Simmons i think) has moved to Scotland to make it easier for him to start on the Scottish series!
