Sutherlin Airport Oregon? OH if correct.
|
Well that did not last long. Well done Olympus, Sutherlin it is.
It's OH. |
|
NALF Ford Island?
|
Not Ford Island JSCL, much further south.
'866 |
Cockatoo Island, Western Australia?
|
Yup. Cockatoo Island in Yampi Sound. Very high concentrations of iron ore.
Hasn't changed much since '61 Emeritus. |
Also the bluest water ever!
Open House then. |
Thank you emeritus and dora-9, doing the hard work for me! I shall be taking a repair crew out there tomorrow and staying overnight for the Christmas Bash, it's a hard life!

On a Caribbean Island maybe?

On a Caribbean Island maybe? |
I've just finished going through What Aerodrome Mk I & II and have only managed to identify 4 out of all the locations posted from the first image posted, so I'm a bit hesitant to identify this location as: San Fernando Airport, San Fernando City, Ilocos, Philippines
I'd like to say a huge thank you to all who have participated in making this a great thread to read and long may it continue. Hope you all have a happy Christmas. |
Indeed it is San Fernando!
|
Wow... Hope that won't be the last time I'm successful
Here's one from me - I think it is quite easy. http://i1191.photobucket.com/albums/...ps015e54be.jpg Off to be santa now. |
I won't say the answer, but Ciao! and everyone enjoy a Merry Christmas in their local Italian Chapel if you have one nearby.

Lamb Holm? Open house if correct, please, and a peaceful Christmas to all...
|
Lamb Holm it is - thought it was easy. I have harder ones lined up (I think)
Open House |
Where is Cockatoo Island ?
Where is Lamb Holm ? |
Lamb Holm is: N58°53.18 W002°53.60. Not sure if I can post a link to the source for this ref as it is another aviation website.
As it is still Open House, if no-one objects to me posting another picture, here's another location. This one is a bit older than my last effort. http://i1191.photobucket.com/albums/...ps7f867d59.jpg Just rechecking the list - this has been half done before, but I can't see the picture used, although judging from the description of it, it wasn't this image. |
evansb:
Cockatoo Island is in Yampi Sound, in West Australia's north. Not to be confused with the one in Sydney Harbour! Try 16 05 46S 126 36 40E. |
Time for a clue:
The same location, but from the other side of the road - there are two aerodromes. http://i1191.photobucket.com/albums/...ps17ca2abe.jpg |
Croydon used to have two aerodromes separated by a public road, but...
|
Cranwell has a north and south airfield with a public road running between them.
|
Not Cranwell.
Not Croydon but ... |
Hamble (north and south)?
|
Looks similar to Plough Lane to me, but if it's Hamble, wasn't there a railway line somewhere?
Course Manston is another place with effectively two airfields separated by a public road; not sure about Sealand; was there a road between north and south airfields? |
Not Hamble
Not Manston or Sealand Plough Lane isn't an aerodrome, but a road, so if this is Plough Lane, the aerodromes would be... My next clue would be: Looks like a new barn in the the farm buildings |
so if this is Plough Lane, the aerodromes would be... |
Correct - in the 2nd picture, Waddon is this side of the road and Beddington is on the far side with New Barn Farm in the middle.
TheiC has control. Beddington opened in 1915, Waddon in January 1918, with Croydon coming into existance in 29 March 1920. Plough Lane, New Barn Farm and the hangers and offices in the centre were only demolished in 1928 http://i1191.photobucket.com/albums/...PRuNe/002C.jpg |
Apologies,
In the Lake District with very limited internet, and rather like Cherie Blair without her 'contraceptive equipment' I haven't got my aerodrome equipment to hand, so open house please... |
I'll take advantage of the Open House. I'm sure this aerodrome has been done before, but I couldn't resist the appropriate seasonality of this picture.
http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c3.../IMG_1284L.jpg I can't find any ICAO reference to the non-standard lights ;) Here's a clue: Taken today at 0810 local. Sunrise was 0850. |
Thought I'd google "control tower christmas lights" and top of the shop:
Edmonton City Centre Airport. |
nvubu,
That's the one - CYXD, Edmonton City and previously Edmonton Muni. A mere shadow of its former self, with the main runway having been ripped up and only one shortened runway left. You have control. |
Thank you.
Here's the next aerodrome - a nice easy one - a very big clue is right in front of you. Suprised to find that this no longer exists. http://i1191.photobucket.com/albums/...PRuNe/003A.jpg |
Obviously not Montserrat but looks like it has the same problem!
|
Seen this pic before; I think it's at Victoria Falls. Not sure if the airfield has a different name.
OH if correct. |
It is the original Victoria Falls Airport - Sprayview Airport, sadly no more. It was called Victoria Falls for scheduled flights.
Only 2km from the falls, fantastic for the flight over the falls. olympus has declared Open House |
|
East coast.
