Dalma, but that's close enough! OH has been declared.
|
Nothing to go on here. A clue might well be in order.
|
SE Asia...VYETNAM
|
It doesn't yet looked disused and I'm wondering if we are in the UK.
|
That's Stanley, Falkland Islands. I've actually used 36. :ooh:
OH if Jenkins agrees with my assessment. |
Try this one. Sorry for the poor quality but taken on a mobile while on the move. You are looking at the Northern (ish) threshhold.https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.gmf...932d5fe506.jpg

A question about Stanley. Does anyone know why 09/27 has such large threshold displacements? Saving maintenance costs?
|
The runway was extended significantly immediately after the 1982 conflict in order to accommodate F4s. This was predominately done use MEXE/PSP metal 'matting'. Once Mount Pleasant was open, there was little/no need to keep the long runway.
36/18 is a tad under 300m short; plenty for an Islander and indeed the Do228 that used to float around. 27/09 is about 1200m. |
A shot in the dark.
Fair Isle ? |
Not Fair Isle and not in the UK.
|
Time for a clue I think. This picture is taken from just below the Southern threshold looking roughly East. There are many of these things around here.
What drives them contributes significantly to local tourism.https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.gmf...c3c64eff2d.jpg |
ea200, Is the tourism related to wind surfing? |
Yes it is.
|
South Africa?
|
A long way from South Africa
|
A different south? South of France?
|
Not the South of France but a lot closer. This runway was carved out of the hillside in 1994 but abandoned not long after, following (I am told) a change of local government.
|
Broadford in Skye?
|
He has already said it's not UK.
|
Long long shot.......went to Tenerife once and saw lots of windywurfers.....so, I’m thinking Canaries, looking on G maps it looks like a possible strip at Caleta de Famara on Lanzarote...? |
