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.

Yes, it was a B1 doing a short display
I thought I recognized Machrihanish too, and I assumed the B1 was arriving to pick up some fish from Campbelltown :)

Before landing here a pilot has to have either done so before sometime during the previous 2 years or have experience of flying in mountainous areas. Looking at the surrounding high ground one can see that this is not “de Trop”!

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

*Unfortunate name that, considering.

Duckbutt 1st Nov 2007 21:20

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

Flap40 2nd Nov 2007 11:35

I think it is La Mole in southern France.

Duckbutt 2nd Nov 2007 11:39

That's the one Sir! You have control.

Flap40 2nd Nov 2007 14:31

Okay, try this one.

Is it Calais?

Flap40 2nd Nov 2007 15:44

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.
