I knew that would be easy. RCAF Comox on Vancouver Island, where the Snowbirds do their Spring Training.

Curses! If I had taken more than a cursory look at dook’s photo, I would have spotted the mountain at the end of the runway.
Long Tieng is on my bucket list of places to visit, mainly because of having read “Flying through Midnight” by John T. Halliday. An autobiographical story about flying C-123s in Laos, which culminates in an emergency NORDO letdown into the jagged karst terrain surrounding Long Tieng, on a dark moonless night and then successfully landing on the unlit runway, not knowing if they would be shot for landing at a forbidden “non-existent” base. Gripping reading.

I first learnt to fly on a Tiger in 1965.
My instructor said "if you can slow roll a Tiger you can slow roll anything" - he was right.
Are these photos taken at a fly-in or rally in the UK ?
Kemble or maybe Cosford ?
