I used to have an overlay of all the UK airfields there have ever been- including fakes built during WW2 to divert attacks from real airfields. I haven't checked this link http://www.homepages.mcb.net/bones/0.../UK/ukmenu.htmfor safety, but it claims to be the zip file required.
Another personal favourite airfield was RAF Binbrook, in Lincolnshire- home of the Lightning until its retirement in the 80s. As an optimised Air Defence station, it might have returned to use in the run-up to the Twilight War.
Some of the RAF stations you have listed are not actually airbases- High Wycombe is an admin support station (although there is an airfield nearby, at Booker on the western side of High Wycombe). West Drayton, although not an airfield, would have been a valid target, as it was the main Air Traffic Control Centre for military aircraft in England and Wales (and was colocated with the civilian London ATCC).
All this is just nitpicking though- an excellent piece of work, and if I can ever find a GM I'll point him at this thread (and pretend I never read it).
