Thanks. I've just noticed that that house, the terminal and the second tower can still be seen on Flashearth.
The next challenge.

Agree its Portsmouth on 15th August 1967. Which turned out to be a bad day for Channel Airways as two of their 748's crashed at Portsmouth on the same day!
G-ATEK which overrun and hit an earth embankment at 1148 hrs followed one and a half hours later by G-ATEH, inbound from the Channel Islands, which also overran and crashed through the northern perimeter fence at 1334 hrs as shown in Flap40's photo.

evansb has it.
Scampton it is in 1953 with 27 Sqn showing off their brand new Canberras.
...and the link with Odiham is that 27 Sqn is currently based at Odiham - with Chinooks.
It's all yours evansb
