Good challenge... other than Heraklion and Souda Bay I wasn't aware that there was another airfield on Crete!

Kastelli is currently being upgraded. There is also Tympaki military airport on the south coast.

The distant one is a Naval Air Station, isn't it?

I mean the one on right. The one in upper middle doesn't count, does it?

Didn't spot that - it's all I had. Either i guess, since one will lead to the other. They are both civilian I think.

TF Green Memorial Airport, Providence RI. Opened in 1931 as Hillsgrove State Apt., then Hillsgrove AAF during WWII. The Shell Island strip in the far distance looks a bit tired, but it's Happy Hour at the Quonset Point O Club - Still ANG I think. OH again if correct, sorry. LFH

& thanks from me too!

Now the latest challenge to me looks like France and more exactly Brittany. But having had a google around I can't say where it is!
