Are we in Ohio ?

The significance of the prop might be from an early change from H-S to C-W electric,or possibly from the prop of Lanphier`s aircraft that shot down Yamamoto,or one of the props from `Glacier girl`.......?

Not Ohio. Nothing to do with Glacier Girl.
Here's another clue:

Having found out who she was, I think it must be Evelyn Sharp Field.

Well sleuthed, dook. Evelyn Sharp Field (KODX) in Ord, Nebraska.

Evelyn Sharp was a local lass who died in a P38 take-off crash in Pennsylvania. She was the USA's first female airmail pilot. She was the youngest American woman to hold a commercial pilot's license. By the age of 20, she was one of only ten female flight instructors in the United States.

There was some apparent but unsubstantiated controversy surrounding the crash which killed her. She had landed the day before for an overnight stop; the aircraft had been perfectly serviceable then. The engine failure happened on the first flight next day. Some suspected that foul play may have been part of it, but there was no investigation, no evidence.

Thank you kindly.

I Goggled "female pilot killed in a P-38" and a colour version of your portrait came up - it was downhill after that.

Standby please....

I usually do historic photos and this is no exception.

Good afternoon Bear.

Unfortunately not German.

Must get new glasses !!

So where please ?

Well, I can't see it on GE.

You have obviously found Tartu so fire the next please.

Okay
I just happen to have something ready.

Tarmac RW11...….:uhoh:

Blimey - I just put that (tarmac runway 11) into Google and....

Bozeman Yellowstone !!

Somebody also did that recently - was it not you?

Standby while I open up my sleeve…..

Not a GE photo and checked with new glasses for watermarks.

Do you mean I have repeated a recent one ?

Oh - I see.

Luftwaffe airfield,either trainer or fighter...?

I must now climb to knee height six and stay straight and level for nine hours.

It has been a great day gentlemen - thank you.

Now the What Cockpit thread has bee resurrected let's support it.

Good evening sycamore.

German yes but not trainer or fighter.

No idea other than Rangsdorf, and not convinced by that.

I've done Rangsdorf before.

Is the airfield still visible on GE ,or under solar panels/coal mines...?

I think it is not on that website - glasses and magnification no good this time.:)

Still visible on GE and there are some panels around.

All of which means it is called Basepohl?

It does indeed.

Basepohl - you are clear hover-taxi.

Thanks. Seems to have been a busy spot. Now this: s

hort-lived, in an interesting area, paludrine may have been advised.

Somewhere in Italy?

Not Italy.

I don't think there's a lot of malaria in Italy.

Somewhere in Africa ?

Not Africa, and now I must disappear, nos dda.

Malaria in Italy thought to have been eradicated, but seems not altogether so. Malaria in this spot may have been eradicated by an interesting piece of hydraulic engineering which in turn would have discombombulated some whose attentions may have been unwanted.

Purely an afterthought.
