I don't know about Oxford, but could it be Canefield Airport on Dominica?

Not Canefield either.

This country consists of more than one island (in name as well as physically).

Must be St Vincent and the Grenadines, but which island.
We've had Union, so not that. Seems too old for Bequia.

How about Mustique?

Sorry, wrong again. Looking at Google Maps of the Caribbean I can see several other countries that have more than one island in their name.

Turks & Caicos
St Kitts & Nevis
Antigua & Barbuda
Trinidad & Tobago

It's in one of these!

Ah ha!! Found that VERY picture.

Barbuda.

Yes it is the "terminal" at Codrington. The town is named after Christopher Codrington, a former governor who left books to All Souls College, Oxford. to form the Codrington Library.


All yours.

This challenge airport is not tropical.

What, they don't have snow in the tropics? lucky blighters.

Is it Oslo?

No, it's in the Western Hemisphere, the Americas.

Anchorage perhaps

My guess would be for somewhere just across the Berings strait from Alaska. Can't think what country it would be other than Siberia.

So, how about Providenya?

BSD.

Sorry not to be Keeping Up.

Much smaller than Anchorage but not TOO far away.

Note that I said "Americas".

Whoops!

Failed to spot America, will pay attention in future!

BSD.

The picture was taken upon the arrival of first jet service.

I have to be away from the computer for a while. I'll check back as often as possible.

Wein Air Alaska Airlines B737 inaugural flight at Kotzebue Airport on 03/03/69 perhaps.
Mel

Bingo! Mel has it.

Kotzebue is about 60 miles / 100 km north of the Arctic Circle and on a bay off the Bering Strait.

A more-recent photo of the terminal.

The baton is now in Mel's hands.

Next Challenge
 

Thanks seacue. At first I thought it was an aircraft of Western Airlines but the tail logo was incorrect. Incidently I checked with the mods regarding when to start a new thread and the response was as I PM'd you.
Next challenge a bit further back in time than yours.

Not Andover, at the time this photograph was taken the aerodrome was not a Military Airfield.
Mel

I'll try Waddington since the hangars fit but the dates don't!

Farnborough?

Detling?

I'll keep searching tho'

A long shot. Lympne Airfield.

Mel,

I never thought I would be using my day-job skills in this forum, but the terrain in your second photo looks like typical "chalk country", which if I'm correct would narrow your airfield down to the following areas: East Yorkshire, Lincolnshire, Norfolk, Cambs., Bedford., Bucks., Berks., Salisbury Plain, North Downs, South Downs.

In desperation, how about Arbroath!
