Standby...….

Thar be gliders :ok:

Not sure whether it is for D-Day or Market Garden though.

D-Day...……...

That looks like a UK airfield. Could it be the 09 threshold (pre-extension) at Lulsgate?

I'll take a stab at Tarrant Rushton.

ea200 takes the biscuit with Tarrant Rushton.

Thanks dook. Nothing to hand and off to bed so OH.

After some of the great images recently, you might like a breather with this one.

Doesn't look UK, but the square by the control tower reminds me of UK, so I'd go for Commonwealth country - one of Australia, Canada, New Zealand or South Africa?

Yes nvubu, you are in the correct ball park with your idea. Cheers.

Good thinking nvubu.

I'll start with Australia.

It`s not Auz Dook, but your on the right track.

Good pointer.

NZ ?

How about Whenuapai (NZWP)?

It is NZ Dook. It`s not Whenuapai chimbu warrior, but I can well see why you might suggest it.
It`s getting a bit dark in my part of the Commonwealth now Gents, so bed time it is until 1900 or so. If anyone gets it right before then, rather than delay any more image posts, if you are all happy, you might like to continue on.

I have just searched "new Zealand old airports aerial" and on the second line down is an aerial view of Old Canterbury Harewood.

Looks bang on dook - there's a blog spot page showing the changes over time. (this website doesn't allow a link to blog spot or even the full word entered :( )

Is anyone else happy that Harewood is correct ?

Well I am. Found a picture!

Well that's two of you - thank you.

Standby please.

Ball rolling again.

No - some time in 1946.

I am fairly certain I've seen it before somewhere - might even have it on my PC at home, but can't check until 9pm.

Have you been editing out registration numbers :)

nvubu.

Registration numbers would have helped to give the game away.

They are only partially visible in the original photograph and both begin with G. :)

Netherlands??

UK...……...

A large scotch for our Dutch friend please.

Heathrow it is. :D

I think you have already cropped the original quite a lot.

I see water at top left so are we on an island ?

Does that mean an island near or on a Mediterranean coast ?

edit: Rhodes ?

Should`ve gone to `Specsavers`....

Is the reference to Specsavers meant for me ?

If so I have clearly missed something.

The only novel that I can find which might fit the clues is Greeks Bearing Gifts
