There are times when I think I have the intelligence of a mealworm. :\

We're not in Africa.

Vehicles look to be WW2 vintage. Indian subcontinent?

Not India either but you're moving in the right direction.

Christmas Island? (Pure guessif it's east of India)

How about Borneo?

Borneo is looking good.

Is it Kuching?

dook 14th Nov 2018 15:21

You are now 110 miles away. :)

kenparry 14th Nov 2018 16:01

OK. There's a problem in that my atlas and Google earth have very different opinions on where there are airports in that part of the world.

Are we in Sarawak? If so, Bandar Udara Pangsuma looks to be about 110 miles from Kuching and is on fairly flat ground.

dook 14th Nov 2018 16:15

That is in Indonesia and we are in Malaysia.

Some refer to it as Sarawak.

Google Earth is quite accurate in distance measurement as it measures great circle values.

There is a somewhat derelict strip at Kapit. N2.00, E112.56 Am I going the right sort of direction?

dook 14th Nov 2018 16:23

Bandar Udara Pangsuma is 160 miles from Kuching.

Our posts have just crossed - standby please.

You have gone too far east now.

This airfield was originally built by the Japanese in WW2. There is now a modern airport close to there.
