Phu Quoc it is! Clint, I'd love to know what aides you use to identify airports. I tend to go from memories from having been there, though I do find that I am pretty gooa at general geographic locations i.e. North America, Europe, Asia, etc.
New airport to handle at least A320/B737 sized aircraft is being built to support the casino that is being built on the island. By the way they had the freshest, best looking seafood on the street.
The Mil helicopter came in full of Officer types just before our flight landed.

C2j.
The clues are nearly always in the picture, whether they be aircraft or geographical.
In your challenge, the blue houseboats on the river was the main clue to Vietnam, after that it is just research.

Ok guys,
This place started of as a civil passenger facility in the late 1920's.
It subsequently became a Municipal Airport, an Army Airbase during WW 2 and is now still very active but not with the Army.
During this period it has changed names several times.
There, that should do it !!!

des,
Well the black stuff really works !!
Yes it's Clovis or rather Cannon AFB as it is now.
Started as a civil aerodrome in the late 1920’s and was called Portair Field.
In the 1930’s it was renamed Clovis Municipal Airport.
This picture was taken in 1943, a year after it was renamed again as Army Air Base Clovis.
Its name was later once again changed to Cannon AFB named after General John K. Cannon (1892–1955), a former commander of Tactical Air Command.
Cannon AFB is now the home of the 27th Special Operations Wing (27th SOW).
They operate a variety of special operations aircraft, including the MC-130W Combat Spear, AC-130H Spectre, MQ-1 Predator, MQ-9 Reaper and CV-22 Osprey.
Over to you.
