Not much of an overshoot there- the runway's blocked halfway down! I assume you were going for the grass;)
Thought it might be South Marston before Honda got their hands on it, but looking at Googly it doesn't match up....hmmm... |
Ex USAF? - Alconbury?
|
BN- reckon you're right.
|
BN :D
Thought that'd last more than a few hours! |
Ok - here's a fairly (very?) obscure one. I think this satisfies the old photo rule!
http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...ker/img002.jpg |
Brough perhaps?
|
Wattisham?
|
Paddyboy's there already - what clues?
|
Off to beddy byes now. can't wait for tomorrows pics:ok:
|
what clues? Lack of horizon perhaps. Here's a nice easy one albeit obscured by a little well placed cumulous. http://i110.photobucket.com/albums/n...0/DSCF0470.jpg |
St Mawgan?
Last one was Brough - taken by my father who fortunately wrote on the backs of his pics...'our 4 aeroplanes at Brough, Nov '59. Under the massive wing of a Beverley. Part of Blackburn's Factory at right rear, sea wall in rear at left' |
You've done it again BN.
Mawgan it is.:ok: |
This is all I can manage after my tricky one lasted 5 minutes.

Looks familiar - but I'm very intrigued by that big curved tyre mark. Not the only skid mark that happened that day I guess! :eek:
And a touch low on the glide slope! |
Hmm...
South America? Venezuela? |
Malta 14 ?
|
PaperTiger you are correct - over to you
|
|
Polk City?
|
Wrong hemisphere (E-W).
|
Cambridge? (Not sure about the hangar, though....)
|
Yes, Cambridge it is.
onb has control. |
Oh dear, that puts me on the spot...no very good pics and a huge learning curve to get them from the ancient album to here...here goes with one...
I can't get the photo onto the page, even though I'm following the instructions at the top of the forum... The link is http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/f...ter/Ident4.jpg The hills (to the SW) are a clue...it was taken around 1988.. http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/f...ter/Ident4.jpg All I get on the edit screen is a little box with the picture symbol, and nothing when saved. |
Wroughton?
|
Right country, wrong airport.....
|
Compton Abbas?
|
old,not bold challenge
Just astab in the dark Dunsfold perhaps?
|
old, not bold.
You don't make it easy !!! Should we rename this thread What car park ? !!!!!!!!! Could it be Popham ? Clint. :):):) |
Sorry!
It's the only photo, bar an even more difficult one, that I've got.. You're looking SW and there's an estuary between you and the hills...and a fruity NDB down there somewhere over the Spit's nose BTW, not Compton Abbas or Dunsfold |
If I can get this pic on, it's the same aerodrome, different bird, and fairly easy...
Nope, still won't do it, here's the URL http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/f...ter/Ident5.jpg BOAC is on the case of my incompetence, you'll be glad to hear.. http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/f...ter/Ident5.jpg |
old,not bold challenge
St Athans perhaps and the estuary is the Bristol Channel
|
Perhaps Exeter???
|
Yes indeed...it's Exeter
All yours. |

Exeter Airfield
Forgive for the digression but I found a photograph of a number of C-47 belonging to the USAAF 440th Troop Carrier Group ranged on Exeter Airfield on the 5th June 1944 on the same part of the airfield that old,not bold's photograph was taken.
