Are those airships in the background? (Not "their airships")

I'll let the caption do the explaining...

The last U.S. Navy 'K' Class Patrol Airship was retired in 1959.

Looking at those buildings I would say Germany.

RAF?

Duckbutt 24th May 2013 10:12

Yes, no. ;)...........

Butzweilerhof. And it was RAF 1951-1967.

Now, that's neither clever nor quick of me!!

And if you'd also posted this GI of the place, most RAF aircrew would've got it immediately!

Sorry but I have to ask; what have a load of sheep got to interest RAF aircrew?

Duckbutt 24th May 2013 14:46

Cuefaye is right, I wasn't sure what how to answer the RAF question without making it too easy or alternatively misleading anyone hence the ;)

I knew it was RAF later but it wasn't at the time of the pic.

Do tell us how the sheep fit in with the RAF (surely not the other way round!)

They don't, but do with the navy. :E

Nice one evansb - I can't think where that might be!

chevvron 25th May 2013 11:44

Er is it in Germany?

cuefaye 25th May 2013 15:17

It must be the sun!

evansb 25th May 2013 15:36

Wasn't really a challenge. Just photos of more sheep at German aerodrome, specifically Tempelhof.

Noyade 26th May 2013 12:03

Already on Mel's list, but probably not this particular shot...

Hmmmm....just checked it against Google Image and the SOB can still recognise the airport from a different direction.

Amazing!

I'll try a different image and another part of the world...

That's the Lake Hood seaplane base at Anchorage International. The Alaska Aviation Museum now occupies the pennensula on the right side of the picture.
