Still too far north.

Well done Jarvis :ok: I was convinced that with the 'block' format of housing and the abundance of Douglas aircraft that this would have been South America. |
A quick one....

Tiger_mate's challenge
Judging by the size of the fields around the airfield I would say this airfield is in the UK?
Mel |
Samlesbury?
|
Apologies for not confirming sooner, I have had a nightnmare day negotiating the motorway system or should that be 'canal' system of north west england.
I digress; Salmesbury it is > Jindabyne has control :D If it had not been sorted by now, I was going to say: This airfield is well familiar with being a testing location, and if you are vigilant, you can see ATC. 3 clues there! |
I'm intrigued by the aircraft (looks like a 737) which has just sone a STOL takeoff from the taxiway in the centre of the pic, and the other one lining up behind it to repeat the same feat...

Please take over - am off PC for next 24 hrs - will rejoin later |
Perhaps an easy one:

I'm intrigued by the aircraft (looks like a 737) which has just sone a STOL takeoff from the taxiway in the centre of the pic, and the other one lining up behind it to repeat the same feat... For our worldwide guests, this airfield is part of British Aerospace and is where many Lightning and Canberra flights occured. I do not think that BAe use it regulary nowadays, but as can be seen, it is far from dead. It is situated approx 30nm east of the main BAe military airfield at Warton. |
Boston. (like it says on the fold, lower right :O )
I got it before I noticed that. No, really :E |
I didn't see that "Boston". I wonder why it is there.
This field is hundreds and hundreds of miles west of Boston. |

Sky Harbour Phoenix perhaps?
|
No, Mel, not Phoenix, though I expected to see that guessed.
|
Salt Lake City?
|
Not SLC.
Only the left part os the terminal was there in the late 1950s when I boarded at this airport. The larger, right, part was built in the 1960s, I think. Isn't that a DC-8 with two jetways attached? |
Las Vegas?
SD |
Not Lost Wages.
All the recent guesses have been too far west - but it is in the Mountain Time Zone. |
sfo?.................
|
No, Jarvis, San Francisco is in the Pacific Time Zone.
Here is a HUGE hint. This terminal no longer exists. |
The former Denver Stapleton International.
More current Pic: http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e7...onal_Airpo.jpg |
BINGO!
StbdD has it with .... The former Denver Stapleton International. Serving "The mile-high city of Denver at the foot of the towering snow-capped Rockies". Only the control tower and a parking garage remain. The rest of the old airport is being converted into residential, retail, etc. It would appear from StbdD's photo that the control tower is gone unless it is out of the picture to the right. StbdD now has control. |
Alas, I have no picture ready for posting so I'll re-open the floor for the next submission.
|
An extremely simple one to keep things moving while our UK friends are asleep.
http://users.erols.com/rcarpen/airport8.jpg I'd be surprised if this isn't identified in the first couple of guesses. |
Pan Am's original base at Coral Gables? If it is, the hangers are still up but there's a huge marina there now and no palm trees (at least not since Andrew).
|
And the terminal building is Miami's City Hall.
The floor is yours ICT_SLB |
Curses! The one time I actually get one right & I haven't any photos (at least in a web-friendly form) - the floor, as Mel often says, is open.
To continue the Pan Am thread, I picked up an original paperback a couple of years back detailing the setting up of the China Clipper route - it's arguable that the later victory in the Pacific was due in no small part to their pioneering efforts. |
Ok I will take the lead.....
