The Canadian Joint Air Training Centre (see the sign on the tower) was at CFB Rivers, Manitoba... An interesting article on the web asserts that the large hangar in the background is haunted!! Spooky stuff.


OH if correct.

Soemwhere cold and flat - I don't think Norfolk tho'

Tower seems to have the word Training Centre on it ......

Wild guess - Churchill in Canada???

jensdad is correct. He read the clue. OPEN HOUSE as requested.

nvubu 28th Aug 2017 12:42

Not Austria - right region though

Challes-les_Eaux?

nvubu 28th Aug 2017 21:56

Not in France either. Runway is grass.

kenparry 29th Aug 2017 07:24

Bex, Switzerland?

nvubu 29th Aug 2017 12:06

it's not in Switzerland either.

Not many more countries left to choose from :ok:

Heathrow Harry 29th Aug 2017 12:29

It has a german feel to it but I can't see a strip that fits

nvubu 29th Aug 2017 12:46

Not Germany either :)

nvubu 29th Aug 2017 13:01

It is definitely somewhere in Europe.

jensdad 29th Aug 2017 13:34

If it is indeed Karst geology in that area , would that point to Italy or Slovenia? (If only because they are the only two large Alpine countries that haven't been mentioned!)

nvubu 29th Aug 2017 14:46

jensdad is correct, it is in one of the two countries mentioned.

Heathrow Harry 29th Aug 2017 14:46

Could be Bovec in Slovenia.................

nvubu 29th Aug 2017 15:20

And we have a winner. It is Bovec in Slovenia. Taken from outside the Fire station. A most unexpected find, drove round the corner and I just knew it was going to make an appearance on this thread when I returned home.

Over to you HH.
