As it's OH try this one of the tower of this blessed airport.http://i783.photobucket.com/albums/y...ddraig/090.jpg

Hawarden airport near Chester.
|
Not Hawarden John, wrong continent.
|
St. Catherines/Niagara District Airport CYSN
|
Correct, India four two has control
HD |
Sorry all, I've been offline. No access to my bag of aerodrome images. Open House
|
|
Taieri, NZ South Island?
|
Spot on siftydog,:D
Your turn now I am off tomy bed. |
I'll have another sift around, but OH meantime.
|
|
Don't know the exact location, but...airport cafe/bar with conifers in the background...Continental Europe, possibly Germany?
I certainly like the idea of an airfield bistro-bar: http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r...psb01b0f48.jpg |
Someone should be able to recogize the label on the beer bottle.
Beer served at airport cafe in 50's/60's, rules out NZ then! |
The Airport is in Europe, but not Germany. 1965
|
It's a Sabena DC7 and it's not Brussels. Haven't got a clue...
|
It is not Lisbon, but southern Europe is ok
|
Naples, Italy ?
|
3 bladed props say DC-6B - not that it helps with location.
stylish railings says Italy |
Sorry for delay, the Airport is not in Italy
|
Okay, the beer label is Spanish, so I'll guess Barcelona?..
|
Yes, it is Barcelona 1965. What a place to drink a beer! Glory times!
Over to You |
BARCA! (7-0)
Estrella ain't bad either. |
Here is the next mystery aerodrome:

How about Brooklands?
'b |
Sorry, not Brooklands.
|
V long shot - Hendon?
|
Worthy Down?
|
Sorry, not Hendon, nor is it Worthy Down. The aerodrome in question is no longer in existence.

Tut tut Bri..............................
|
Watchfield?
|
Not Watchfield. The mystery aerodrome closed before WW.II. The aerodrome's brief existence is commemorated on a plaque.
|
The 'Belfast Truss' hangars would indicate British Isles; other than that I don't have a clue but the distinctive road layout may jog someone's memory.
|
Alexandra Park/Hough End. The 504 helped! OH I'm afraid.
|
Radlett? OH if right
|
http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r...ps71a25923.gifWATB is correct. In 1919, you could fly from Manchester's Alexandra Park Aerodrome to Blackpool, (South Shore Aerodrome), for a mere 9 Guineas.
Why Britain adopted the Guinea instead of the Pound Sterling I do not know... WATB has declared OPEN HOUSE, to no one's surprise... Regarding the Hough End Aerodrome, I stand corrected, as the site is not completely without air traffic. On weekends, the site, (Hough End Playing Fields), hosts radio controlled model aircraft traffic. (See above photo, taken at Hough End Park) Nuff said. |
People cheat. A lot. I've been informed by no less than two (2) long time ppruners that my photos are easily sourced, so as to enable a quick solution to my challenges. So be it. A gentleman with morals would avert their eyes...
Cheaters cheat. Who knew? Eff you to all who cheat. |
I suspect then that there'll be only you and one or none others left to contribute. Myself included of course.
|
Correct!:ok: Play Pink Floyd's "Brain Damage" now..
|
As it's open house again try this one taken by my front right seat passenger about five years ago.
