Amanty Aerodrome ?


Heathrow Harry 1st Jun 2018 13:20

Still an airfield after WW1??

I think SMOKEON has cracked this one.

nvubu 1st Jun 2018 16:31

SMOKEON has it. Amanty it is: Few more overheads to show how little the layout has changed.

Duxford? OH if correct

Heathrow Harry 1st Jun 2018 20:58

I'd rather hoped people would think it was N France but it is indeed Duxford - early '00's I think..............

Sid has declared OH

This field closed a few years ago on the demise of the owner. Enough clues in the photo for now.

Mark 1,

Your picture reminds me somewhat of Calistoga, which is the only US glider field that I know of, that has closed, but it looks far more lush than I remember.

Durango Gliding Club, Colorado, U.S.A.

Mark 1 2nd Jun 2018 14:05

Smokeon has it.

The Val Air field in Durango next to the famous Durango to Silverton railroad and the Animas river. Sadly no longer available.

Or Blackbushe c1961ish (just after the local council had 'destroyed' part of the airfeld to return it to common land; still waiting 57 years later!)
