Spitfire Vbs at Abadan, Iran (Persia), before the onward flight to the U.S.S.R. on Lend-Lease.

No, Goose Bay is too far north !!

minuteman.
No, not an AFB.

This place dates back to the late 1920's. It is now a Municipal Airport.

During WW 2 it was used as an Army Training Base.

I don't see the vestiges of your photo, but could it be the Theodore Francis Greene Airport, Providence, RI?

I'll be away for 90 minutes or so.
