With the air conditioning units, I'd guess it is from the Americas. With the obstruction lights on the deck rails, I'd guess the aerodrome has a number of helicopter movements, or perhaps it is a water'drome control tower and terminal.. How so far?

I'd like to respectfully point out that Peenemunde has been done before - I know because I got it!

chevvron your point is equally respectfully acknowledged .
