ZH875, Duckbutt.

Wow !! A photo finish. Just 3 minutes apart.

As ZH875 declared OH, might I suggest Duckbutt has the helm.

Open house until I pull my slide scanner out of storage.

Two quick scans... One is already on the list but the image has been removed and from the text I imagine it was a different view. The second doesn't comply with the rules as I don't know what the airfield is/was but I do know the area where it is so you'd be helping me identify it!

It looks like you might have posted 4 pictures but I can only see the middle two and two broken image place holders.

The second image that I can see (taken out of the stbd side of an ATR) is Goxhill. Agree on Panshanger for the other.

Thanks for that chaps. Goxhill looks right. It was an ATR on approach to Humberside.
As that wasn't within the rules though, The member gets control with Panshanger. (From a 146, probably, on approach to Hatfield)

How about this one:

Yes, I have been sneaky and photoshopped out the runway alignment for now. But nothing else is doctored. Too many other clues around. Looks like a quiet day though......

I had one of my most memorable flights from here about 15 years ago in a little 172. But its not my pic.

A day without a bite.... It reminded me of an Airpark near Phoenix though I don't think the road was so close. Given the buildings and roadway I'm still tempted to go for the USA and Arizona though there may be too much green grass.

Indeed it is USA, but not Arizona.

Its a very seasonally busy airport with a Hollywood link.

And a photo with a view in the opposite direction will be the next clue......it will give most of the game away though.

I'll put the opposite view pic up this pm if no one gets close.

Van Nuys? (not a good match to web site pictures, I must admit).
