Benin City in Nigeria. The Nigerian Airforce hangar is surrounded by a selection of decaying hulks including some BAC 1'11's. The Nigerian Airforce employee's had an old settee positioned under the wing of one of these.

They arrive for work at 8am, sit down on the settee and enjoy the shade provided by the aircraft wing. At 5pm after another hard day discussing their troubles they would depart for home.

There is also a collection of what appeard to be Soviet built helicopters, they looked very interesting no doubt inhibited by a collection of venomous snakes and rather unpleasant insects.
