If it is Heathrow, it should shirley be Heath Row back then? ;)

Well according to the 'properties' of the pic it seems to have been taken in 1944, I don't think there was a 'Heathrow' then!

I refer my learned friend to my imminently previous post.

No - not a commercial airport.

(edit) - And many from the UK have visited here.

('nother edit) - And it's quite famous, and would be if only by name...

Long Beach

It's now the USAF Museum at Dayton Ohio - Wright-Patterson.

barit1 17th Feb 2008 12:20

LFT has it. It was known as Wright Field at the time.

BTW - the unusual configuration of long buildings in the NE corner may also be seen in post #1333.

Well, in my time, Patterson Field was located to the NE of Wright Field. AFAIK, Patterson is still active while there is no flying at Wright. OK, it's WPAFB.

Myrtle Beach A.F.B.(KMYR).Boeing 707-330B. N88ZL.18th, October,2003.

LFT 17th Feb 2008 18:23

It's actually now called Myrtle Beach Jetport but the terminal is on the other side of the runway, the 707 is actually on the old ramp of the AFB and without going into too much detail sabredog I only post my own pics on here, if you know what I mean. :ok: Well done.

seacue sez:

Oh, it's still there!

And Wright Field (now Area B of WPAFB) is inactive, except for September WWI fly-ins on the grass infield just N of the E-W runway.
