A precision strike, Harry.

Lanyu Island, just off the SE coast of Taiwan, home to a large population of indigenous people, who are not very happy about their island being used as a dumping ground for waste from nuclear power stations.

Here are some of the canoes that inspired the terminal building's architecture, with the symbol that dook mentioned:

HH has control.

Actually I'll hand it to Dook - his/her Taiwan suggestion led me to Google Taiwan Airports ................... which was a bit too easy..................

That airport looks like an interesting landing????

Amazed someone went off the runway on the UPHILL side

HH,

I thought about that too, but looking at the runway orientation, I suspect they get healthy onshore crosswinds.

As HH graciously said, dook has control.

PS I recently completed the Melbourne to Hong Kong leg of the Round-the-World virtual race on sailonline.org. Quite a few PPRuNers participate - my vessel is Miss Saigon. When transiting the chain of islands in the Luzon Strait, I wondered where the boundary between the Philippines and Taiwan was. That's how I discovered Lanyu/Orchid island.

Thank you HH - very honourable of you. I have nothing ready so please take it yourself.

OK....... still in use but not for landings.....

UK military ?

Sometimes....

Looks more like a film set - Bovingdon?

Might it therefore be also American ?

Wroughton?

I know both Bovingdon and Wroughton but I don't think it's either; I would take a first stab at Manston.

Sculthorpe?

Upper Heyford ?

I know Wroughton also, I spent a week in hospital there ... Great fun :)

East Fortune?

Woodbridge or Bentwaters?

All close but wrong

Dook is correct in that has been both RAF and US - but not U Heyford either

F100? Wethersfield.

Or with all those trees, Lakenheath.
