Tropical - Yes
Malta - No
Pacific - Not WWII, correct area, but not strictly Pacific though.


Source images are fairly small for this one, so not brilliant quality.

Not in Malaysia.

No longer resembles an airfield. The runway and surrounding base just looks like a huge scar on the ground in GE

runway was approx NE/SW

Vietnam then ?

Maybe Thailand though.

nvubu 24th Mar 2018 20:37

Yes, it's in Vietnam.

dook 24th Mar 2018 20:49

Might it be Khe Sanh ?

nvubu 24th Mar 2018 22:17

It's not Khe Sanh, but it is another combat base.

SMOKEON 25th Mar 2018 11:01

rather odd - significant displaced threshold at BOTH ends for no apparent reason

chevvron 26th Mar 2018 00:39

Farnborough has displaced thresholds at both ends (in the order of 500 - 600m) purely to restrict the LDA to 1800m as a 'sop' to the local planning authority but that's not Farnborough, I think it's somewhere in Germany associated with a university but can't remember the name.

Using the alternative link from the album - can you see it?

This isn't a german University nor is it Farnbro' either .....

At one time it was a lot busier than it is now..................

Seems to be an increasing problem here - if we can nail when it happens we can try and chase the mods.......
