Could it be Melbourne - Essendon ?? Looks like an Australian National DC-4 + an un-British bus with Royal Mail titles.

Could be the same TAIP (Transporteos Aereos India Portuguesa) DC-4 but certainly the same airport. EvansB, you have control, although Sabredog was faster off-thread.

Thanks. I posted the above Dabolim aerodrome photo, circa 1958, in "Which Aerodrome ?" Mk.I, some time ago. It is not, however, on the list. .

Here is the next mystery aerodrome, which happens to be one of my top-ten favorite aerodromes:

Looks like CYCV - Cartierville, Quebec, Canada with Gouin Boulavard in the foreground. Somewhere I have a copy of the company approach plate with the (unofficial) Instrument guidance "YUL DME 3.2 mi. turn onto runway heading."

Unfortunately all my airfields have been done so Open House.

The Wichita kid is dead on!:ok: CYCV, near Montreal, Quebec, was home to many Canadian designed and produced aircraft. The site should occupy a place in Canada's history.

As ICT SLB declared open house, here is an easy one;

East Kirkby?

Captain Airclues 26th Jun 2009 08:23

Correct Vlad. You have control.

Sorry, nothing from me. Back to the rest of you.
