I would guess at O'Hare, Chicago.

If that's correct and its also the one alluded to by Gulfstream aviator then he can have it.

Washington National/Reagan?

Duckbutt has it subject to de-coding the Macy's reference. I would have thought any Chicago airport store at the time would have been Marshall Fields but as this thread is not "Which Department Store" lets not go there.

I reckon about 1959/60 from the extended version which adds an AA Boeing to the DC-6 & Convair as well as a Chicago Helicopter Airways S.58.

Perhaps Gulfstream Aviator's world has cooled too much so in the meantime:

An FAA 'crossbow' airfield (loadsa hangars) possibly Chedworth?

Duckbutt 19th Oct 2012 09:09

Its not Chedworth, chevvron.

Edited to add its not FAA either.

Rugged terrain and estuary in the background, how about Edzell?

Duckbutt 19th Oct 2012 10:16

Sorry, not Edzell or that area.

Duckbutt 19th Oct 2012 16:56

The photo was taken during an RAF attack.

Stavanger?

Duckbutt 19th Oct 2012 19:11

Yes, Stavanger. All yours.

Oldpilot55 19th Oct 2012 21:03

Blimey! I guessed right...lucky.
Open house, I am marooned on a ship and cannot provide a photo.

Well that's an RCAF C47 on the ramp, more thought applications ahead:ugh: Not Lahr, but looks European:confused:

one11 20th Oct 2012 21:04

Yes, European.

merlinxx 20th Oct 2012 21:35

Given the markings on the Dakota, the photo was taken between 1965 and 1969.
Is the aerodrome still active ?

Yes but has had several changes of title.
