The Channel Map - Dimensions? Scale?

[92 Sqn. Philstyle (QJ-P)]

Hi all,

Some time ago on the Banana forums, there were some discussions about whether or not the channel map was scaled to real life distances. I've done a wee flight today, and based on the speed and travel time it seems to me to very quite close to 1:1 scale. Does anybody recall how that conversation ended over at Bananaland? I've lost the link some time ago....

My somewhat hazy memory is that they concluded it was accurate after testing.

Septic.

Yeah that's what I figured.
Thanks.

The conclusion both on 1c forum and here was that indeed the map is 1:1. I believe it was discussed here in the FMB section.

The map in game is ~ 352200m by 303100m

OR 352km by 303km

(width, height)

Brilliant, thanks for that Farber.

Both me and ole Snapper did this some time ago, and well it's certainly big. Also most definately full scale. Unless of course your airspeed indicator is reading half what it should, and the map is twice as big as it should be.

Or something like that.

I think.......

Not. :D

I concur P. S!
