Roads as runways.
Hi,
On my travels around Europe I've come across a few roads that are obviously more than roads. Dead straight, wider, no central reservation, strange markings, side roads leading into hillsides, etc. There's a few in Switzerland, and the last one I saw was in Sweden last year.
Any idea where this one might be ?? Looks like an SU 25 to me, and the commentary in the car could be Russian ?? :

( Looks like their Health & Safety people are on a different planet to ours !! ?
Did we have anywhere in the UK where we used to use roads as runways ?? I remember hearing that the A1 near Leeeming was used ??
Cheers,
T-G.
