ps I'd better go and check the defo of Western hemisphere.
West from 0 degrees longitude to 180 degrees longitude. This is the only definition.

Must be in Canada..?

Lordflasheart 31st Jul 2013 10:14

Thanks for the professional definition LM. :ok:

Not Canada, Sycamore.

To recap - between the Equator and North Pole and between 90W and 90E - the part that passes through 0 deg long. at Greenwich - and it's salt water. Nuff diggin' here - no more haitch-word for me.

North America?

TCF - Not North America.

LM - Thank you again. " ..... worth a thousand words."
However, it did start with the entire globe and our razor-sharp contestants have already reduced it to a quarter of that. But to assist further - not Greenland or Africa or the Caribbean (or Northern Ireland ... or Bewl Water ;).) LFH

I'll thus shoot for mainland Europe.

Lordflasheart 31st Jul 2013 11:36

Mainland Europe it is ....

Lightning Mate 31st Jul 2013 12:10

It appears to be of WW2 vintage.

Italy?

Lordflasheart 31st Jul 2013 12:35

It is WWII but it's not Italy.

Airclues 31st Jul 2013 12:40

Scandinavia?

Lordflasheart 31st Jul 2013 12:59

Indeedy Davey, Scandinavey. How ya doin ?

Lightning Mate 31st Jul 2013 13:10

Fornebu?..

Krakatoa 31st Jul 2013 13:23

I will go for Sola

Lordflasheart 31st Jul 2013 13:33

Oslo Fornebu (Norway ;)) spring 1940 during Weserübung - Well done Lightning Mate. You have control.

BTW Wiki has a much sharper picture of Fornebu littered with all sorts - barely room to fly. I thought I could hear the tannoy echo - "Letzte Pilot im Bierkeller zahlt die Rechnung."

This is what it looked like six years ago - LFH

Cheers.

If there are no objections I will donate this to Airclues.

He hit the country or I would have been going all over the place.

Lordflasheart 31st Jul 2013 13:45

By Jove you chaps have been busy - three posts while I'm off editing my German grammar.

To celebrate ? his 13,000th post -
LM offers it to Airclues - Take it away Dave !

Lightning Mate 31st Jul 2013 13:52

Hadn't noticed 13,000 posts!

Airclues 31st Jul 2013 15:56

Thanks LM, but unfortunately all of my airfield photos are on slides. Can anyone recommend a scanner that works with an iMac (please PM rather than clog up the thread (and possibly infringe the advertising rules))?

Could I please either hand it back to LM or declare open house.
