Mel's Challenge
 

No, it is north of the 40 degree north. Will be off-line for the next few hours.

Danielson Airport - K5B3, a public airport located 2 miles (3 km) northwest of the borough of Danielson, in the town of Killingly in Windham County, Connecticut.

I thought I recognized Machrihanish too, and I assumed the B1 was arriving to pick up some fish from Campbelltown :)

Evansb is correct. :ok::D. It is indeed Danielson Airport - K5B3.
You have control Bri.

Thanks Mel. Here is the next 'Which Aerodrome?':

Bucharest, Baneasa (BBU)?

Duckbutt is spot on:ok: Bucurest, Baneasa, Romania it is.:D You have control.

Not Mountain Air/Burnsville* North Carolina, by chance ?

*Unfortunate name that, considering.

Not in the US, roughly 4,500 miles away from North Carolina (but Northern hemisphere).

I think it is La Mole in southern France.

That's the one Sir! You have control.

Okay, try this one.

Is it Calais?

Not Calais but it is in Europe.

Oberpfaffenhoffen?

Not likely but the name makes me laugh. Used to live nearby. The pic looks almost like a Microsoft landscape?

Great thread BTW - sorry for the creep.

Looks very Low Countries to me - that line of trees in the background is possibly a canal. It's either a very short runway or a huge apron - is that a Catalina?

I'll make a foolish guess at Leopoldsburg (BE)

It's Leylstad north of Amsterdam.

Leylstad it is. There is a Catalina in the picture along with a 747 if you look close enough.

One thing that has always struck me as strange is that there is an ILS on the SW runway (you can see the glideslope to the left of the runway) but the touchdown markers are at the other end.:confused:

Ok, my go again then :E

ref EHLE pic, pray tell, where is the 74 & Cat? 74 onto 4101ft ? Thks

Have a look at the Google Earth image of EHLE and you'll notice what looks like an aircraft museum abeam the RW23 threshhold and there is a B747 there but it doesn't appear in the originally posted pic.

BH.

National Aviation Theme Park Aviodrome at Lelystad Airport
 

The museum is the Aviodrome. Some interesting exhibits.

The Cat is to the left of the second hangar from the bottom. The 747 (admittedly only the nose) is at the very far end of all the buildings. If the pic had been in colour it would have made it too easy:)

Do you guy's need a clue re the latest "Which Aerodrome"? :E

Google Earth doesn't give a name for the old German airfield, but it's just north of the town called Wittstock.

Location is 53.12N - 12.31E

Open floor if correct.

Correct, Wittstock it is,

It seems to be open:

Wild guess BEA Vikings at Berne Airport Switzerland. 1950s

Its around 1959 , but not Berne

You did not rule out Switzerland. Winterthur perhaps?

No, its not in Switzerland, but not far away.

How about Austria? Vienna Schwechat Airport when it was a single runway?

No Sir, but the hangars (listed buildings, in use since 1916, but not always at this airport) are still in use. The tower and all other buildings, except the small ones, are gone.
