Noyade 21st Mar 2013 11:01

Affirmative mate. :)

Ex USAF/USN?

Noyade 21st Mar 2013 11:22

Wiki makes no mention of it being ex-military.

Noyade 21st Mar 2013 11:25

I should mention the photo was taken in 1983.

Think I've found it but not sure of official title - Jefman, Indonesia?

Noyade 21st Mar 2013 20:08


Jefman, Indonesia
Well done Duckbutt! :ok:

I have it as Jefman Island - "the airport for Sorong". Air travellers land there and are ferried across to Sorong, according to Dick Smith's book were he illustrates and describes his solo around the world helicopter adventure.

Cheers!

Thanks. Sorry for slight delay, spent yesterday evening helping some good friends celebrating birth of first grandchild and came to be feeling very little pain, as the saying goes. Here's another:

I would say a little further East. Afghanistan or Pakistan?

Duckbutt 22nd Mar 2013 12:38

Yes, CGB, one of those.

Lightning Mate 22nd Mar 2013 13:51

Lysanders - it must be Pakistan.

Looking.............

Lightning Mate 22nd Mar 2013 14:04

I just Goggled "Lysanders in Pakistan", and up came Kohat.

Lordflasheart 22nd Mar 2013 14:06


Lysanders
Are they all queuing to climb aboard ?

Duckbutt 22nd Mar 2013 14:15

Yes, IAF (I believe) Lysanders at Kohat in what is now Pakistan.

LM has the ball.

Lightning Mate 22nd Mar 2013 14:17

No new balls available I'm afraid, so reluctantly it's OH.

I have a couple of other images of the aerodrome if it proves difficult.
Cheers.

Mate,

Those fuselages appear to be Murray Sueter's "Bloody Paralysers". So is it the RNAS airfield at St. Pol/Dunkirk?
