30's Expansion Period architecture, but an odd hangar layout. Topcliffe?

nvubu 26th Aug 2018 13:51

It isn't Topcliffe.

Over to you Jenkins - I see you have been posting challenges whilst I've been away. Look forward to your next one.

I can't work out whether that's a TACAN or VOR navaid.

Unusual hangars so Europe other than UK ?

dook 26th Aug 2018 18:46

Spain...……?

"The Boot" - Wellington ?

dook 27th Aug 2018 10:10

I looked at Wellington and it looks nothing like that.

Is there another one ?

nvubu 27th Aug 2018 10:49

RNZAF Base Ohakea

And Ryanair don’t fly there ? ! Somewhere I do have some airfield photos - but God knows where exactly. I promise to find some; but for now, open house.

It isn't Wellington though. I think Jenkins was saying that you were in the correct area.

One from my recent holidays - taken from the nearby road as I could only get a gate photograph, which gives it away.

Interestingly, my sat nav shows that the runway starts in one country and ends in another. Microsoft Maps (Windows 10) shows the same - as below.

However, in reality the border runs round the northern edge of the airfield.
