Running low on fuel, but Wiltshire or possibly Buckinghamshire ?
Who's Ricky ? I lost a dozen mates on Jaguars. |
Just a little clip of the mast, having left my own crewroom earlier, not certain about true name. Much humour from some of my chums.
So, chalk. Yes, plenty in Wiltshire, and altitude, as indicated at beginning, is relevant. |
Thanks for you company - at least two of us have been playing this evening.
Glass empty and levelling off at two feet six. |
Not quite empty.
Clyffe Pypard. |
Spot on, very high but can still be looked down upon from even higher Wiltshire. Similar views down on to Wroughton. Very busy, I believe during National Service training post WW2.
All yours. |
Thanks J.
There is a clue already in this one. https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....878d4b6fee.jpg |
Out for two hours.
|
Oberpfaffenhofen?
|
You are in the right country.
|
Oberschleissheim ?
|
Manching ,Bavaria.....
|
dash7fan gets the top banana.
The Fugwerft Oberschleissheim Museum. All yours d7f. |
|
Looks like a Schweizer but I doubt it.
Your part of the world ? |
No, ist a Scheibe L-Spatz 55
|
OK - Austria ?
|
Doesn't look small.
Strasshof ? |
Not Austria, but in the vicinity
|
Two choices I feel.
Switzerland maybe, but I have discovered that glider was popular in Hungary. The car might be East German or Russian. |
Munich-Riem?
|
Jenkins, correct city but wrong airport. The Hangar was typical for this field. You could fly through it.
|
Was it military ?
|
Oberwiesenfeld ?
|
Dook is correct. Airport closed 1968. We picked up the glider 1959.
Your control |
Nice challenge d7f.
I'll put this up. However, if anyone feels like a shot at posting a challenge, then please feel free to do so and I will then remove this one. https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....6d68b24400.jpg |
Looks like they are grounded due to some bug in the MCAS system!! |
Possibly Canada,or Orstralia.....?
|
The first one.
|
Scoudouc, New Brunswick?
|
Splash. :ok:
Scoudouc was an RLG for Moncton. Your round. |
Thanks. Some amazing photographs of Lancasters left out in the Alberta prairie, and more amazing was the 'Tankaster.' Bedtime now, and busy tomorrow matin, so OH I regret
|
I will try to reach to Jenkins’ cryptical level: His flight was bad, not like a gracious falcon. https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....651c5789b.jpeg Now turned into a golf course. |
No responses yet.
|
You will have to decript (most) in French |
That would be fine if I knew what to interpret.
I'm out on this one - see you later. |
Son vol etait mauvais,pas comme un faucon gracieux`...A de S Ex.....?
|
For a thread which is about identifying aerodromes, maybe this is now getting a bit silly !
|
Is it in France, ..Paris..?
Who is `he`, Pilatre de Rosiere,...Louis B,,...? |
https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....2a2655acc.jpeg when you have the man and his machine the Aerodrome is easy |

Who is `he`, Pilatre de Rosiere,...Louis B,,...? Not one of the Pioneers above. There is a French song about him partial Free translation: The plane!, the plane! It climbs into the air, It hovers over the mountains, it crosses the seas, Let it go to watch the sun like Icarus And that it may astray even further And it puts a trace in the sky, an eternal furrow But let's keep it the suave name of a plane Because of it’s magic word, the five clever letters This virtue opens up mobile skies. French, what did you do with his air castles? He left a word, but there is nothing else left of him. |
