Getting much closer - go further north.

Except for Kumzar, where there hasn't been an airfield, going further north gets into Iranian territory and islands.
|
Closer, but not far enough north.
|
I disregarded that because it's only accessible by boat.

Surely we can't have somewhere with no name on the thread !
|
SLB has it. Jazirat Umm al Ghanam. English name Goat Island.
My photo was taken in the 1990s and I am not sure what is left there now. It was about 40 deg C at the time. The firemen kitted up fully for the Skyvan movements and saluted as they taxied past. I presume that when the RAF helped set up SOAF they gave them all the standard kit that was around at the time. Can I get back to my decorating now?? |
Thanks ‘62,
For giving no men’s land a name. Lots of succes with your home decorating! New challenge, any Belgium participators? https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....fb2ec2620c.png SLB |
A Sabina Sikorsky I think.

Sometimes it doesn't take much research and a bit of luck.
You had fun with my last Lightning picture so here's another. http://i63.tinypic.com/muv2x4.jpg |
Laarbruch.... I recognise that tree on the left! 😉 |
Nice trees but not Laarbruch.

Hard spots and taxiways between the trees SLB |
Not Geilenkirchen either.

Not so much RAF bases left in Germany (if it is Germany)
Bruggen has only a few places with trees both sides. SLB |
Stop looking in Germany chaps - we're not.
|
Kleine Brogel?
