Does "No UK", mean "No, it is in the UK" or "No, not in the UK". :)

dook 19th Oct 2018 18:46

I read it as a typo for "not in the UK".

Excuse me for my English.
It is not in the UK

The 10’ is the cut off of the magnetic deviation arrow.
The field is approxiamately 1500 yards across.
No V1 or V2 site as far as I know.
Although they built this.

Ah - aircraft ID again.

Koolhoven F.K.55 - so it's definitely Holland.


Back in their factory at Waalhaven Airport in Rotterdam, Netherlands, the Koolhoven team went …….
Waalhaven.

Waalhaven It was,

It was more famous because of the Wehrmacht action overthere than the Luftwaffe.
(Fallschirmjaeger)

Nothing to be seen there anymore.
Except for the streetnames
After famous Dutch pilots Fokker, Plesman, Parmentier, Smirnoff etc.https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....74eaab2a0c.jpg

Never knew that sh!thole was so openly on internet.
If you connect the clues of sewer and Clavell’s Kind Rat....
It was not meant to be difficult.
just trying to do something different than the overhead photo.
i hope it is enjoyed by everyone ?

Are you going to score the goal or not ?

SLB

dook 20th Oct 2018 15:15

I'll claim it - standby for another non-overhead.

OK:

Typical Dutch.

I knew that there had been an airbase but
if not for the website
Luftwaffe Airfields 1935-1945
I would not have known were to look.

nothing left except those 6 bunkers.

Goed gedaan :D

Sorry, yet again an overhead
 
Sorry folks,

Now i have an overhead to share.
But as i posted previously I try not to post the standard.
Not exactly an aerodrome. but related to American military aviation.
I think due to time of posting our fellow Pprune's on the other side of the pont have a chance to join in?

Succes, SLB
