Ref: Pyongyang & was it easy.
Not at all, it was a perfect challenge for this forum, and I have no knowledge of the place at all.
It would be fairly easy to post a nebulous airstrip tucked away at the back end of beyond with a poor quality photo and no hints as to a solution. Far better to give a clue for us Sherlock Holmes types to get our teeth into. In this case my initial curiosity revolved around China, and therefore simply googled IL 62 to find an airframe with similar markings. Once the airline was identified, I had a likely country, especially as with so many of one airline, it was almost certainly showing IL62s 'at home' Wilkpidia gave me airline details and about 4 airports to choose from, I opted for the primary hub but could easily have got it wrong.
How certain was I when I posted? No more than 70%
Was it a good quizz? You bet
Am I in need of a life?
