Duckbutt is correct:ok: Bonames-Frankfurt. Home of the U.S. Army's 5th Battalion, 158th Aviation Regiment and 503rd Aviation Company. I think the base closed in 1992.

You have control.

You're far too good at this Mr 'dog! Still it lasted over an hour.

Over to you.

sabredog 13th Mar 2008 18:13

Thank you D.B.
Open House, once again!

I assume it's still open house ? So will try this one, I think it may be small, but well formed !!!! Keith

Well that definately looks like a USA, but in UK, control tower, I'm sure I recognise it but cannot be sure from where, so I'll guess at Lakenheath having driven down that road from Brandon many a time :)

Oi Mr Grubby, was Sabredog with us at LATCC in 1970 then?

old,not bold 14th Mar 2008 10:26

Reminds me of Bentwaters..........

shack 14th Mar 2008 14:14

Sabredog
 
And I thought I was the only ex-LATCC who flew Sabres---or is it just a name?

sabredog 14th Mar 2008 17:04

Shack,please check your P.M.s.
Gentlemen,may we draw a line under this? It's becoming almost a "chat room",and diverging somewhat from the main thread.
P.S . I agree with Phileas Fogg that it could be R.A.F Lakenheath.

Good evening people, without saying too much, It's not any of the above ? Keith.

MReyn24050 14th Mar 2008 18:23

Greenham Common perhaps?

sabredog 14th Mar 2008 19:10

R.A.E. Thurleigh, Bedford ?

aeroplanejohn 14th Mar 2008 19:17

Looks like Greenham Common. The tower is still there and some of the trees but not the buildings.

KeMac 14th Mar 2008 19:36

It is slightly too high for Greenham

norwich 14th Mar 2008 21:27

OK, time for a little hint, so far four, very well educated, attempts, but none correct yet. ??
57.08
31.36
67.52
134.06
These are the distance in UK miles that each attempt is from the target (as the crow flies) (straight line) but not necessarly in the same order ???
Keith !

Speedpig 14th Mar 2008 21:28

Upper Heyford, he speculated wildly..

norwich 14th Mar 2008 21:33

Sorry Speedpig, your attempt missed out on my previous caculations by one minute, but alas it is not quite correct ?????? Keith hmmmm ?
