Looks more scandinavian to me...isn't that a SAS MD80 and a couple of F50s on the terminal? Not big enough for Arlanda or Oslo so try Bergen.....

Def not Seattle, too small and too close to the water. Also from that angle you should have hangar(s) on the right of the runway for the Vulcan Inc biz jet fleet. Sticking with Bergen.

Davidsoffice, Bergen it is.

Sorry for the delay, been out all day.

Over to you.

Edited much later: I took the photo on left base for the southerly runway, and vacated at the first intersection you can see.
I felt a short circuit would do after taking two days to get there!

Good morning OBP. Clearly its a Tiger Club event, with 'DC and, I guess, 'EF (the SV4). The obvious from that era would be Redhill but it doesn't lokk right, or my memory is poor. Anyhow I'll kick off with Redhill. RR

Right event but not wrong location. Those power lines get in the picture again.

Tiger Club

Sorry OBP, I've been out. I don't understand - "right event", thus Tiger Club, "but not wrong location", thus it is Redhill?? Am I missing something? RR

Sorry if I confused you. This was a Tiger Club act within an airshow held at an airfield other than Redhill. I don't remember much about it, but it was amongst my mid 70s photos so I must have been there.
Now are you even more confused?

If I'm not mistaken that is a hard runway in the pic, something that Redhill is absent of!
