Tacklebury has it, once Mozambique came in to the equation I guessed it wouldn't be too long.

Here's another pic of it I found on the web:

Good one PF

[Phileas Fogg]

Thanks descol,

I did have to chuckle myself when I found it, I too would have been searching the atoll's, Fijian islands etc. as I'm sure most of you were, one would barely imagine an island like that in Africa!

[Duckbutt]

I would not for one minute confess to wasting time searching images of Pacific islands and atolls.

To keep things moving have a look at this (probably just a five minute wonder but then again....):

Muroc Army Airfield (Edwards A/B now)

[Duckbutt]

OK then, a six minute wonder! Lightly disguised Bell jet prototype in the 40's. You have it dash7fan.

Genlemen, open house pls

[olympus]

Try this one...

[olympus]

Time for a little clue...

This airfield was formerly the principal airport for this city, which is the country's capital. After a period of disuse it is now, I believe, back in service but not as an international airport. I once landed there in something of a hurry with what turned out to be a faulty oil pressure gauge.

[barry lloyd]

Are we in Central/South America?

[olympus]

Negative; not Central/South America.

[Mr_Grubby]

Africa ??

C.

[olympus]

Yes, Africa.

[Cows getting bigger]

Addis Ababa. OH if correct.

[TheChitterneFlyer]

Google Earth certainly does confirm Addis Ababa; Liddetta to be precise.

Lets try this one...

[TheChitterneFlyer]

I guess it's time for a clue...
