Hmm, it's been a time but it looks like Ohrid LWOH. And I sure know the type out of of which this pic was taken :)

AN2 driver- I suspect you can work out the type blindfolded:} as to the airfield though, wrong I'm afraid:E

AN2 Driver 9th Oct 2007 20:02

True enough, must go and do that again sometime soon. Great plane and good fun to fly.

Best regards
AN2 Driver

I've noticed that one has appeared at our local airfield(EDFC)- must make enquires as to the possibilities of a hop...:)

This'll probably be my last photo for a bit as I'm off to the UK, then France for a month as of thursday am. Hopefully someone will get this one before I go, otherwise you'll be on tenterhooks until I get to a comuter again:p

Is it Grobnik (LDRG), Croatia?

621andy 10th Oct 2007 05:11

KMG 365- Congratulations, it certainly is!

I flew in a Blanik there with a mate of mine- The roughest aerotow and landing I've ever experienced:uhoh:...but the soaring was good though:ok:

Very friendly lot there:)

My ex Olympia 2B flies there too;)

Here are acouple more pics of Grobnik, near Rijecka, Croatia:

Shoreham..........?




Edit....alignment's right, sea outlook about right, but a check on Google earth says it's not Shoreham, unless its a very old pic...............ah well, back to work

621andy 10th Oct 2007 11:08

Looks vaguely sub-tropical...Asia somewhere?

KMG 365 10th Oct 2007 13:51

Sorry, onb. It's not Shoreham.

Not in Asia either, Andy.

Here's a hint:

The body of water in the background is the Atlantic Ocean.

Is it Heston?

Mel's Challenge
 
Well done Bri. :ok::D It is indeed Heston, I almost said it would be easy and this time I was right. By rights you have control, however I see that LFT has posted one already.
LFT, I see this was only your second post, it is the thread rule that to post a new challenge you have to solve the current challenge.

LFT 10th Oct 2007 20:42
