Where they hold the RSA Rallye

Jensdad is on the right lines.

I wouldn't have said it was the middle of nowhere but I was surprised to find out it serves 13 destinations...........

better photo..

Hmmm... I'm going to go for another French airfield much beloved by the Flybes and Ryanairs of this world. Poitiers?

Right Country, wrong airport

Is that part of the same clue, or a new airport ?

Sorry! Same airport - you can (just ) see the tower on the right over the rather large bump in teh middle of the field.....

and it's NOT near the seaside

Looks like Limoges?

Aéroport International de Limoges

Sorry crossed ea200

I suspect that there might be a porcelain factory nearby?

Also crossed!

I recognised the runway but not the buildings.

Limoges it is - the runway bump is a bit of a give-waay I thought........

ea200 has the con by a minute lead over Icepak

Only just made it! Try this one. It also has a bump in it.

Looks like the C Valley in Scotland.............................

Not Scotland. JENKINS has it, EDFV Worms. Suffered mild embarrassment there some time in the 80's when I took an Aztec in there. Went past the clubhouse braking heavily only to find another 300 odd metres the other side of the bump.

Don`t forget the Leconfield `motorway` Jenks..

JENKINS, sorry the red roof tops got me to EDF, thought you had it although the * puzzled me. Open house I think.

OK try try again......

Asturias? Flew into that airport (as a passenger, not a pilot!) from the other end. Nice approach over the sea.

Thought it wouldn't last long!!! 12hrs 30 minutes....

Over to Jensdad

Yep, thought it looked familiar with the angle of the coastline to the runway, the drop at the East end of the runway and the woods opposite the terminal. We got a fantastic view of the Picos de Europa mountains on the downwind leg but then didn't see them again for a week as the weather was terrible!


I have nothing sufficiently tricky, so it's Open House!

Okay, here is a challenge:

RAF Milltown (Moray)?

Edited to add: Open house if correct. Off to put the kids to bed!

RAF Milltown aka RNAS Fulmar II is correct.

As it's Open House, here's one from me - click the image for a more detailed picture

Beaufighter!!!!

It's not Middle Wallop

Not in the U.K.?

Correct, it isn't in the UK

And isn't the dump truck a US built one?

I don't know, but quite possibly as a lot of things were back then.

Rotterdam .

It isn't in the Netherlands.

Luqa, Malta?

And Hurricane.

And is that a P-39 in the background ?

Not in Malta either.


There are a large number of different varieties in shot aren't there.

Somewhere in Germany?

Bone (known today as Rabah Bitat)? I'm guessing North Africa, post/during Torch....

sid might be on to something there. I think that's a Hurricane IID on the right.

Now we are getting somewhere :ok:


It isn't Bone, but North Africa is correct.
