Mel's Challenge
Sorry 621andy I have removed my last post as the photograph was reported to be from a 1957 copy of Flight and was identified as a DC-7C climbing away from Philadelphia after two practice approaches had been made there for the benefit of the trainee crews on board. After further checking I do not think it was either of Phildelphia's airports North Eastern or the International one. I will post another challenge shortly.

You are right, I'm certain. I remember a happy couple hours trying to get de-iced on the ramp in the background. And just to confirm it, I found the same picture on the airport's own web site!
Apologies for the slight break from protocol by posting a new challenge without confirmation from Mel, I'm taking up Jerry's offer of the open house.
This is an airfield (honest!), a photo taken by my dad in the late 50's. Not as obscure as it seems, as soon as someone realizes what the item is it will fall quickly, as it could only be one of a handful of airfieds.

Moin moin!
Richtig, es ist doch Kiel-Holtenau.
Lived there for 3 years, and flew gliders from there. Great place apart from the weather in winter
