maybe Columbo?

Duchess_Driver 30th Oct 2018 15:15

Certainly look like Air Lanka L1011s...

dook 30th Oct 2018 15:40

I've just Goggled Columbo and it's certainly changed.

kenparry is correct. I was looking for the other names of the airport, specifically Bandaranaike International Airport (Sinhalese: බණ්ඩාරනායක ජාත්*යන්තර ගුවන්තොටුපළ; Tamil: பண்டாரநாயக்க பன்னாட்டு வானுர்தி நிலையம்), colloquially known as Katunayake Airport and Colombo International Airport, (IATA: CMB, ICAO: VCBI) is the main international airport serving Sri Lanka.

evansb,

Thanks. The array of Tristars in that livery were the clue.

This one will probably go quite quickly (the challenge, I mean, not the subject of the photo)

chevron - a poster has removed all of his posts. Very frustrating - especially when they have had challenge photos in them.

dook 30th Oct 2018 19:22

West Raynham ?

May we all know who has removed his posts.

nvubu 30th Oct 2018 19:42

Go look at your challenge at the top of the previous page. The answer - to which you replied "That was quick"- is missing as it has been deleted. And the post after it that had the Leconfield challenge.
When I go back and update the list I will have no idea as to where it is :(

dook 30th Oct 2018 19:57

I have not deleted any posts.

There is a post missing after my #9401.

I'll go back through my PC deleted images and try to help you.

dook is correct - I thought it would be quick.

Photo from 1966. the Spit was the centrepiece of 1(F)Sqn's museum, and had been on the sqn strength at Hutton Cranswick in 1945-46. It moved to Wittering, then Cottesmore, but where it went after the Harriers ended, I don't know.

Thank you kp.

Apologies for the quality but I think this won't last long either:

@nvbu

The answer to my post #9401 is Ostende.

He regularly deletes his posts. It is his right to do so of course but I don't understand the reason.

dook 30th Oct 2018 21:18

I've found the missing challenge to give to nvubu.

Kai Tak...OH if correct. If it is I used to watch the aircraft from that roof in 1960!

dook 31st Oct 2018 09:43

Kai Tak it is and we're back to OH.

Looks like Doha.

OH if correct.

Cows getting bigger 31st Oct 2018 14:49

Indeed, Doha International with a slither of Hamad on the left edge.

dook 31st Oct 2018 15:10

No takers for the OH ?
