Dook,

You dissapoint me a bit.
If you are able to show a photo of the same heli spot, You should be able to tell the exact airport and operator?

I did ask if we are near Haifa, which I suggest is correct.

It's a PHI helicopter.

Namal Ha Teufa Haifa

It is a Joint venture between Lahak Aviation and PHI.
PHI delivered the helicopters.
At that time they had 1 under Americain registration and the other under Israelian registration.
One pilot Americain the other Israelian.

Dook,
Thanks, PM answered already.

Looks like a railroad track going "north" on the photo.
So looking for a country with railroad tracks through rural/desert countries.
And where they might appreciate a railroad as supply route for and airbase?
Former Russia Kazachstan, Oesbekistan and the like spring to mind.
Perhaps Australia
Lots of tracks to cover.
Is the photo orientated north?

The image is orientated to true north.

Not Russia or Australia, but it is a continent......

Hold hands - this is a cockup !!

Posted the wrong image. :ugh:

Your go.

nvubu 14th Oct 2018 18:36

I spent ages looking around Southern Africa for that one - hence it jumped out at me.
Go ahead, post the correct one

That's a generous offer.

Speaking as an ex-fast jet driver, there is seldom a prize for coming second in combat.
