Thanks. Much help from Holland in identifying the airframe, for then there popped up a photograph with the relevant ground equipment. The neatness of the blanks and covers indicated an 'in service' aircraft.
Bit late, OH I regret.

I have a slightly different format for you this time - I don't know the answer. This was taken in 1970, somewhere over Malaysia between Butterworth and Singapore, and just to add to the mix it may be reversed (but not quite to the extent my last Butterworth challenge - taken on the same sortie - was. I look forward to the answer (and proof if available).
SLB - I think you are right (it is also my thinking) but although it has the roughly square shape I couldn't make the roads round the side fit the orientation of the main runway.. However, after flipping, turning and otherwise manipulating the image I have now made it fit - so score another one for the Bear. And thank you for giving me the answer.
Bear has control.

Thank you Shackman,
Especially only the ends of the runway paved with an access road across one end were the confirmation for me.
Your photo is indeed mirrored.
The lower triangle on your photo is the now "develloped"/ruined area in the Northwest side.
Next challenge
This used to be a dry landing place.

Dook scores again.
Otto’s Fliegeberg was probably the world’s very first private VSTOL airport.
I wonder if Otto would have ever managed to cross the pond?
