Not a million miles off, but no.

That bush in the background seems to have an African look to it. So Mozambique or Angola?

nacluv 12th May 2013 11:37

Not the African continent, I'm afraid. I have never been there.

Evansb was closer. (Clue - the flag behind the cockpit window ;))

So it is Cuba then ? Or on reflection, perhaps a Cuban aeroplane on a "landaway" ;) ? LFH

nacluv 12th May 2013 18:08

It is on home turf...

Holiday snaps ? Skydiving ??

nacluv 13th May 2013 08:14

Yes, a holiday snap, but not skydiving. It felt a bit like skydiving when the taxi driver drove through rather than round an electrical storm on the way back to here.

Maybe stunts like that contributed to this service being shut down a few years after this pic was taken. Well, that and a series of rather more fatal incidents sadly.

Varadero Airport, Matanzas, Cuba - I think?

nacluv 13th May 2013 14:37

Closer - but still no cigar. :)

I've been waiting to use that line!

It was a scheduled service from this airfield to a much larger concern across the island - and back again in the evening.

Cayo Largo perhaps?

"Go east, young man!"

Duckbutt 13th May 2013 18:30

Santiago de Cuba?

nacluv 13th May 2013 18:41

Too far east!

Santiago was actually the destination for this trip; the much larger concern alluded to in a previous post.

With those trees - Trinidad?

nacluv 13th May 2013 21:28

Wrong coast - east of here...

cuefaye 13th May 2013 21:29

But there's a Trinidad airport in Cuba - so presumably it's not that!

cuefaye 13th May 2013 21:30

We crossed :)

nacluv 13th May 2013 21:32

We did - sorry. I was trying to be funny but thought better of it!

cuefaye 13th May 2013 21:48

Last before bed - Maximo Gomez?

nacluv 13th May 2013 21:59

No, but you are getting warmer!
