Which Aerodrome?
What is that strange cantilevered structure? To prevent the rain getting into HP-42 cockpits or some other more mundane purpose?

Well done.
HMCS Shearwater, also known as RCNAS Dartmouth, Nova Scotia. You have control.
Jumping in with the offer of open house. It's historic in that it was taken a number of years ago, but I gather the airfield hasn't changed much.
Shouldn't take long, so no clues yet.

Correct! An hour and a half!
Furnace Creek (L06) is a place of superlatives. The lowest airfield in the Americas at 211' and the place where the hightest temperature ever recorded in the US at 56 degrees C in 1911.
Also, it's one of the few airfields in the US where you have to pay a landing fee. Although technically, it's the fee payable by any vehicle visiting a National Park. But your $5 also includes free access to the excellent visitor's centre, so it's good value.
