Go ahead, but I doubt such excitement as an FR10 at Withybush.
Well, the Hunter is one of them but the FGA9 was fun. The F6 was fast. Claim both but some others later.

Looks like it could be a flat part of Spain. Moron? (That isn't an insult, that's the name of the airfield :) )

ea200 25th Oct 2018 07:45

It's not in Spain, but it is a similar climate.

I think I see power lines on the left so suspect disused.

ea200 25th Oct 2018 09:43

You're right about the power lines but it's not disused. Very active in fact but not much runway traffic. What you see right of the buildings is a hardstand. The runway is out of sight
as are most of the buildings.

Helicopter ops Europe ?

ea200 25th Oct 2018 09:55

Not helicopters and not Europe.

dook 25th Oct 2018 09:59

If there's not much runway traffic might it be a gliding site ?

ea200 25th Oct 2018 10:13

Not gliding and still military.

If it has a similar climate to Spain might it be North Africa ?

ea200 25th Oct 2018 11:39

Not anywhere in Africa. There was a big POW camp here during WW2 and some of the buildings still exist. It looks flat but there are hills to the East and West. The view is looking roughly South.

America ?

I am beginning to think that it's a military training camp.

Asturias56 25th Oct 2018 12:58

Arizona???

ea200 25th Oct 2018 14:32

It is America but not a training camp as such, although some specific training does take place there.

Judging by your climate comment maybe it's one of the Gulf states near Florida.

ea200 25th Oct 2018 14:47

Not Florida or a Gulf state. Drier than most of those.
