Which Aerodrome Mk III
Only 18 minutes, thought it wouldn't last long.
My son was playing his first adult hockey match (turned 13 last week) on the pitch at RAF Halton, so too good an opportunity to miss. He was awarded man of the match - a really good start to his adult hockey career.

Always wondered why the bus company which ran a service along that road switched from double deckers to single deckers every summer; can't imagine why!!Devil
Is the challenge Popham?

Not 613; they were disbanded about 3 years ago; what you saw was the RAF GSA Gllding Centre which moved in from Bicester in about '96, combining with the Halton Glding Club.

Thank you UV - it was the "Give Way to Aircraft" sign that made me think of NW.
Let's go back in time - where might this be being built. Any thoughts as to what the thing in the middle might be?

This airstrip isn't on Guadalcanal - although it is by the seaside.
The lump isn't a guide to where the airfield is located - I just thought that it was interesting.

You are closer with Wewak than with Guadalcanal, but still no cigar.
The lump was a Japanese bunker - just about to be blasted.
Trying to post an image of the first aircraft to land on the new strip, but the image isn't showing - won't allow me to post the previous image either
You'll have to imagine it - it being a PBY
I'll try again later.
