Time for a clue:

Nobody has been in the right country yet.

Another picture clue later on.

And here's a nice picture of the feral dogs near the main terminal:



Now I can go to bed too!

Excellent challenge, SeenTheLight. Thanks.

I was trying to match that block pattern on the runway. Some soviet airfields seem to have a square block pattern, but this one was very much rectangular. I smelled blood with the suggestion of the Ukraine, and the rest was a bit of searching and good fortune!

I do not have anything to post right at this moment, but I will try to get something as quickly as I can. However, if anyone has something ready to post then please go ahead - that is fine by me.

Interesting security patrol there too!!!
