This map is absolutely magnificent, flying over them does not seem even more Il2Sturmovik, but a new Sim.
Thank you very Cyberolas

His other maps are awesome too

This is a good map. The river port in Stalingrad is included. The stock map doesn't have one.

The stock Stalingrad map  included a lot of mistakes, so this map is most welcome

This remake of the Stalingrad map is a MARVEL. I never before thought about making a Stalingrad campaign, because the map was so BLAND. Not any more. I am really, really tempted to have a go. It's first when you try some of the REALLY nice maps in IL-2 that you understand how much they mean for immersion. 

Again: many, many thanks for doing this!

It is indeed a good looking map. The author has included the city port in Stalingrad/Tsaritsyn. I've set some 47 Squadron, and Russian Civil War missions there already. They transfer from the old map to the new one easily enough.

Can anybody say something on the reliability of this Pitomnik map, please?

I do not want to be wrong but this airfield map seems to me a " guess " of the author and not a reliable one.

Why?

1) As far as I know the Pitomnik airfield was composed of a single runway of 1500x30 meters (4921x98 ft) oriented on a suspected axis of 281°-101° ( I write suspected because at today there are no official data about it available from official sources )

2) Looking at the actual Google Maps images ( http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=48.7383,44.2450&spn=0.1,0.1&t=m&q=48.7383,44.2450 ) the disposition of landmarks ( roads, natural features, etc ) seems to be pretty different from the map depicted above ( no match with the real counterpart, it's only an " approximation " due to the game map )

As reference about other airfields in the area check the two links provided below ( Original  Luftwaffe air recon images ). I think you may find them useful for your work

2) http://www.wwii-photos-maps.com/aerialphotosstalingrad/Stalingrad/index.html

Last but not least... Horrido!!!
