Canberras were once operated here - in support of Operation Grapple (UK H-bomb tests). And, of course, Canberras were at Binbrook for many years! You have control. |

I was down that way flying balloons last week, and just had time for a drive-by but no time to fly:{ next time...:ok: http://upload3.postimage.org/434108/...CNVV001_2_.jpg The 'cloud' of dots in the middle of the pic, are midge like flies which get absolutely everywhere as soon as you climb out of the car- little baarstards:eek: http://upload3.postimage.org/434166/mysterypic.jpg |
If someone else has got a pic, feel free, otherwise I've got a couple more...

Ok Andy, this might be considered rather obscure, obtained this from a friend in the north. I'll remove if it's just too parochial.
Just to make things a little easier/fairer: View is looking west towards the Atlantic. It's had scheduled services for 40 years, wasn't a military 'drome. It's not Islay, or indeed anywhere in the west of Scotland. http://i219.photobucket.com/albums/c...28approach.jpg |
No more obscure than some we've had on here! No idea where it is though...time for research...:8
|
Is it Islay?
|
I'd guess at Yorkshire somewhere. ex military I'd say...
|
Not Islay, not Yorks. I've added some info to the photo post. I'd guess there's probably a few pprooners who earned their wings flying into here before moving on to greater things.
|
West coast of Eire?
|
It's Scotland, it's an island, the North Sea is behind the aircaft. Couple more islands on the western horizon with airstrips a mile apart. (Tiger mate heads out to the car for the road atlas!).
|
Caenarfon(sp?) or, just had a brainwave- Lundy?
|
(Tiger mate heads out to the car for the road atlas!). Kirkwall / Orkney |
Lerwick, Shetland?
|
None of the above! Not in Shetland, not in mainland Scotland.
It's CAA Licenced, owned and run by a local authority, not BAA. Tiger mate is 'warming' |
Papa westray, Orkney. Home of the shortest scheduled flights.
