Well done sir !!

I thought it might have lasted a little longer !! Obviously a little local knowledge.

You have control.

Tacklebury.

[dash7fan]

Thanks Tacklebury!

I was never there, but it looked familiar to me

Here ist the next challenge:

[Mr_Grubby]

Well, can I start the ball rolling by suggesting we are in Europe ?

Yes ?

C.

[simon niceguy]

Could it be Austria / Germany ?

Maybe that's the Rhine River in the background.

Simon.

[dash7fan]

It´s in Europe but not in Germany or Austria. The river is not the Rhein.

[India Four Two]

Over Italy (in a Super Cub?)

[Mr_Grubby]

The fields in the foreground remind me of Belgium or northern France ??

[dash7fan]

India four two

Italy is correct, but it is a Christen Husky

[SeenTheLight]

Gorizia, Italy

[Mr_Grubby]

And I think the aircraft is OE-ARD ?

C.

[dash7fan]

Seenthelight and Mr.Grubby, both are correct.

It is Gorizia in Italy seen from the OEARD during a glidertow.

Gorizia is an very old airfield. First operator was the Austro Hungarian Army during the Great war. So in 5 years the airfield could celebrate 100 years of continuos operation, but I learned, that it could be closed in the near future.

Seenthelight, you have control

[SeenTheLight]

Thank you.

This is my first attempt at posting pictures, so please bear with me if all goes horribly wrong!

RAF Brize Norton?

[SeenTheLight]

No, not Brize Norton

[mustpost]

Ancona Airport, Italy?

[Double Hydco]

Looks quite Soviet Bloc perhaps? (concrete slab runway). Are they Yak's or Tupolev's on the right?

DH

[SeenTheLight]

Not Ancona.

DH, you are correct.

[G-ARZG]

Prague/Ruzyne ?
