the low resolution of the photo has beaten me. I just cant make out any details.
golf course????

My image is too pixilated to see any detail.

It is not Wynyard in Tasmania either.

Con-pilot, the airport is now civil/military and was once operated by the airforce of an imperial power. Oh! at that time the airport was in another country!:8

Sorry about the quality of the picture Chevron, maybe this one will be useful..

Oh c'mon you lot, you lost 3-0, but with your friend GI, you know it's Peshawar. Jeez. No chance in the forthcoming :D

Phew! Cuefaye gets the banana! Over to you sir..


Peshawar, where the rails cross the runway (just like Gisborne and Wynyard). Peshawar in Pakistan which was once upon a time in India when it was a RAF base.
Peshawar, one of the airports where PIA, aka Prayers in the Air, aka Pakistani International, does the ground handling.

if we kept winning the cricket the poms would just slip into third world pessimism.
you've got to give them a win occasionally just to keep them happy as a nation.

btw who is hosting the national paint fading ashes next time?:E

Crook - so Open House

Sorry you're not well cuefaye!

My next one then - no longer an airfield now, the hangar is gone but the large building in the background is still there:

is this in north africa?

Or Sicily ?

Not North Africa - in Sicily.

Did Patton have anything to do with it?

gella-farello?

W8: no.

L-M: Possibly the true reasons for Patton's dismissal occurred here.

massacre of italian prisoners on ... Biscari Airfield?

That's impressive, W8. More correctly known as Biscari - San Pietro or just San Pietro, but I'll pay your answer. You have control.

Despite there originally being revetments and a hangar, there is no evidence at all now that there was an airfield here. If you look at Santo Pietro on GE, you can see where the landing area was and also the large building behind the wrecked aircraft (top LH corner of the landing area)..

I googlated "pattons mistake on crete" he made 3. the 2 slapping incidents were nothing compared to the massacre. so I guessed.
