The one I haven't shown you yet is definitely a dead giveaway.
I did think that this would be one of those airfields named almost immediately.
edit to add: to clarify: on re-reading my other post, I meant that I've shown you two pictures out of three - and they are either side of the one in the middle - which is the dead giveaway.

Bingo, Shoreham it is - here's the middle picture.
30 minutes into the 1943/4 film "For Those In Peril" - a very good watch.
David - there is still a Dome at the airfield today. Same one I assume?
Over to you Jenkins - do you have something for us?

North Weald?
But I've got the right squadron - 56?

Tis not Debden either.
I'm just about to go out (daughter playing hockey), so I won't respond for a while, so here's one more photo for now.
I've got one more image that should give it away. May try to post it from my phone later

Kenley it is. I did think that the 56 Squadron markings would lead you on a wild goose chase. As chevvron pointed out Angels One-Five was on the telly yesterday. It was really good to see Kenley active, as I lived 1/4 mile away for 25 years and could only imagine what it was like. My house was just behind the trees on the left towards the top of the picture.
I was wondering about the twin-engined aircraft. Only picked them up from the screenshot. Would they have been present in 1940?
Here's the give away shot.
India 42 has control.

nvubu,
You sneaky bu
er!
Was 56 on detachment to Kenley? Aahh, I get it! Fake 56 markings in a movie!
I've decided to concentrate on airfields that I've flown into as a pilot. I've done a few before, but I've still got about 50 in eight countries to choose from!
Here's a starter. I'll zoom out as required:
