Which Aerodrome Mk II

[The Real Slim Shady]

Not Biggin Hill.

Can I suggest Nantes ?

[The Real Slim Shady]

You can suggest it and you would be correct!

Just off to the left (west) of the picture is a ramp with several very old aircraft parked on it beside a hangar: last time I was there I thought I saw a Connie.

Looking on Google Maps there appears to be a Noratlas and something I can't work out with a big prop on it - anyone know what that is ?

Here's a real easy one ...

[TheChitterneFlyer]

Could it be Manchester?

[RedPortLeft]

A bit more research has answered my own question - aeroscope at Nantes has a Noratlas, Connie and a yellow AN2 which looks to be sans wings in the Google picture.

Not Manchester, sorry.

Looks like Brum to me

Quite right, here's another from the same viewpoint ...



Over to you

[Monty Gordo]

Good old Brum!

Don't want to be a party pooper but afraid will have to pass on 'over to you' - never taken a photo in my life! I'm sure there is someone who can fill in.

Thanks Mel , staying in a black and white world.............

[Old Bald Pilot]

I'm not sure if that's Brooklands top left. If it is then this must be early Wisley.

[Flap40]

I think that is a beach rather than a race track. Maybe St Mary's in the Scilly Isles?

[Ridge Runner]

OK, so I'll re-submit a post that I subsequently deleted..... Alderney? RR

[one11]

Thats it, Flap40, St Mary's. You have control.

[Flap40]

Thanks.

Open house.
