tis 5 minutes away from me
I thought you were in the UK.

dook 16th Oct 2018 17:26

It looks very similar to a Donnet flying boat so maybe we are in France.

edit : might also be an FBA Type H.

nvubu 16th Oct 2018 17:29

Panshanger is 5 minutes away from me :)

Yes - somewhere in France.

dook 16th Oct 2018 17:42

I'm now almost certain it's an FBA Type H boat. Looking further.

Calais maybe ?

nvubu 16th Oct 2018 18:47

Not Calais.

Now when I said What Hangar - maybe I should have said "What Hangars?" - as there are quite a number.

Getting lost. Dunkerque ?

nvubu 16th Oct 2018 19:06

Too far north. nowhere near the front lines.

dook 16th Oct 2018 19:31

Final shot - Saint-Raphael.

nvubu 16th Oct 2018 19:44

Not Saint-Raphael, and it isn't on the Mediterranean.

dook 16th Oct 2018 20:22

These could be the hangars but the site doesn't say where it is. :ugh:

nvubu 16th Oct 2018 20:43

Yes that is the correct place.

I do have that image as well, but didn't post it as I only try to post images you can't find with Google Images.

There were also other aeroplanes there as well

I'll post an overhead later - which may well give it away.

But one clue. Still military today.

dook 16th Oct 2018 21:09

Lake Cazeaux and I'm off to bed.

nvubu 16th Oct 2018 21:19

And we have a winner - Cazaux it is. Over to you.

Here are the overheads.

Thank you.

Aircraft ID came in useful.

Dook,

Do you think you can enhance de pixels?
I am particulary interessted in the shiny roof and the aircraft (shape) at the end of the runway.
Apart from the fact that we have a large cross and a smaller cross and large trees on the right and smaller trees on the left, I could not determine a clue.

Cheers SLB

nvubu 17th Oct 2018 19:45

Are we still in France? If so - Saint Raphael / Frejus

dook 17th Oct 2018 20:03

Is this more clear.

We are in France but not Saint Raphael.

nvubu,

You are two miles out so I have to give it to you.

Just nb'd your edit.

It's Frejus and I found it whilst looking for your last.

Your thread again.
