Thanks LFT. I believe many of those C130s were being stored prior to delivery to the RAAF.
Here is the next one, back in time again but I am sure this will be no problem

Like many of the airfield operational in the 1930s it has since closed.

This airfield was a civilian airfield.

Thanks Mel. The photo below shows how things developed over the years, although nearly all gone now.

Please accept my apologies for having nothing to offer at present, I was reticent to post for that reason.
I don't wish to hold things up, so Open House.

Miami Florida?

One I know well, without having to look it up. Dallas Love Field, with downtown Dallas in the distance and the Trinity River cutting through the middle of the picture.

There's a nice Museum of Flight in the terminal building.

India Four Two 22nd Nov 2007 13:03

S2, thanks.

As Mel says "this won't last long":
