<Pedantic mode ON>
Pardon me, but aren't the "rules" of this game that only the winner of the previous challenge should post the next challenge or specifically offer Open House? <Pedantic mode OFF> |
Correct, but Chevron has declared open house so I guess JB007's second post is "legal"
On another matter, can someone point me to the list of airfield that have already been posted? |
List as at 16 Nov 2007
|
Flew in there (LSI) a couple of times, here's a pretty good vid -

Given that I believe that my guess of Wick was correct for JB's last post, here is the next one.
Not a lot to go on but it is UK 1930's http://homepages.nildram.co.uk/~jode...s/quiz2711.jpg |
Flap40's challenge
Might be Folkstone Airfield, I know the aircraft is the Spartan Cruiser
|
Not Folkstone - further north.
Aircraft ID is correct though. |
Is it Renfrew?
|
Yes it is Renfrew. If you put "Spartan Criser" into google images then this is the first omage that you get:eek:
|
And there's me flicking through old fashioned books to find Renfrew pictures....next one (what is it about airfields and graveyards?)

Moondance challenge
Is it Broadford Airport, (SKF), Isle of Skye?
|
Broadford it is (is it still open?) Well done evansb
|
Thanks Moondance. A company was planning on Dash-7 service way back in 2003, but I haven't heard of any current sked carriers into Broadford recently. The airport operator is listed with a tel: 01478 612727, fax: 01478 612255. Here is the next 'Which Aerodrome?'

New boy here. Is it time for a clue after 24 hours, evansb?
My guess is Northern hemisphere, probably North American continent and, judging by the length of runway, lack of dispersals and size of car parks - a manufacturing base? ghnry |
The airport is in the United States, and it was the home of an aircraft manufacturer.
|
Evans's chalenge
Looks like William T Piper Airport in Lock Haven PA.
Floor open if I deserve it. |
Sorry, not Piper's plant in Pennsylvania.
|
Hughes, Culver City California.
|
Flap40 is correct:ok: The Hughes Airport was at one time the largest private airport in the U.S. The runway wasn't paved until after WW.II.
The giant Hughes H-4 "Hercules" flying boat was built there, and trucked to the harbour at Long Beach. The airport was closed in 1985. Hughes also built this giant there. You have control. http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r...iggestHeli.jpg |
Well done Flap40. I was getting there slowly. Last went there in a Citation in 1980
