Which Aerodrome Mk II

[evansb]

Is it former Belgian Air Force Base Sint-Truiden/Brustem, which is now open to general aviation ?

[Russell Gulch]

It is indeed, and my apologies for the delay in responding. The Fouga is mounted on a new roundabout at what was the old entrance to the base.

You have the Chair, evansb.

[evansb]

Thanks Russell. Here is the next mystery aerodrome:

[Mr_Grubby]

No. 7 Bombing and Gunnery school, Paulson, Manitoba.

Mr_Grubby is correct. Your control.

[Mr_Grubby]

Thanks.

JENKINS.

Mmm............. maybe but not a major influence on the airfields development.

[barry lloyd]

Carlisle (Crosby on Eden) ?

[Phileas Fogg]

It's a typical UK military triangle runway pattern with two thirds of the triangle now steeped in history, it seems there is a busy road, perhaps a motorway, in the background, yet the layout/colour of the buildings don't indicate it being, now, a military airfield likewise the runway markings don't appear to be military.

What is different to many 'triangle' airfields is that this main runway has a taxiway running alongside the length of the runway, kind of like Machrihanish but a busy road, alone, wouldn't fit in with Machrihanish.

[Mr_Grubby]

Gents.

This place is not in the UK.

Mr G, I'm nigh on 99% certain it's Angelholm in SW Sweden, that is unless it has a doppelganger! Looks like the main north south road in the background.

I recall watching an impromptu single mil aircraft aerobatics display here early one morning - stunning and heart stopping at times, I was relieved when it was over.

Spot on sir !! Well done.

You have control.

Thanks Mr G,

UK, WW2, long abandoned, RAF:

[con-pilot]

I can see why it was abandoned, somebody dug a really big hole in the middle of the aerodrome.

[Mr_Grubby]

Is it Northumberland somewhere ?

C.

[RegDep]

Did they start digging the hole after July 2006?

[Little cloud]

Not Northumberland Mr G. It was a satellite of a nearby larger airfield which in civilian use today. The view is looking SW and the coast is 'behind'.

Played it's part in the War in Norway in 1942.

Regdep, I don't know when the quarry was opened.

[RegDep]

Was it an auxiliary to Lossiemouth?

[Cows getting bigger]

Skitton, just NW of Wick.

[RegDep]

Ouch!!!!!!!
