Thanks horatio b and treadigraph very interesting. I'm pretty sure that this is Bovingdon Aerodrome. HP Halifax 8 G-AKEC registered to Lancashire Aircraft Corporation. Based at Bovingdon at the time the film was made. Reference made to Pprune thread on Bovingdon for comparisons:



The chimney on the left can be seen in an old wartime aerial photograph on the Bovingdon thread.


Photographed at a much later date and at a different angle.



Note Nissen Huts seen below during filming of 'The War Lover' at Bovingdon





Departing from R/W 27 Bovingdon.
