Speke, I imagine during Becher's Brook.

dook 23rd Nov 2018 21:32

Blimey. How did you find that ?

Your throttles.

JENKINS 23rd Nov 2018 21:38

Thanks. Noted AQ460 and worked from there. Former Squadron Commander had been a Sabre pilot, perhaps on 234. Speke https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....b0300841a7.jpg
buildings were remarkable. To bed now, but not without this which my logbook tells me I have visited once. No memory of the visit. Nearby very impressive World Heritage Site worth a look, reflectively perhaps.

Morning all.

That seems to be a small airfield. I assume not UK.

JENKINS 24th Nov 2018 10:25

Positive answer. This is not a UK field. Very busy, apparently, in its own country, and there are plenty more nearby. My solitary trip was by Aztec, and the nearest field from my logbook was in a military VIP machine.

The layout of the fields, and the fact that there seem to be hedgerows between them, looks a bit UK-ish to me. I'm struggling to think of a British World Heritage Site that could fit the clue though, unless it's the Roman Baths at erm... Bath?

jensdad 24th Nov 2018 10:28

Oops, sorry, our messages overlapped there. Neewhere near Bath, then :)

dook 24th Nov 2018 11:10

Are we in France ?

dook 24th Nov 2018 11:39


reflectively perhaps
Something to do with mirrors or water ?

JENKINS 24th Nov 2018 12:42

Last two, yes and yes. Shame about Bath, one of my favourite places. Watch this space for future efforts!

dook 24th Nov 2018 12:44

Does "Last two" refer to my two posts or "mirrors or water" ?

JENKINS 24th Nov 2018 12:48

For clarity, yes to France and yes to one of mirrors or water.

dook 24th Nov 2018 12:53

Thank you.

Near Versailles possibly.

Toussus le Noble looks hopeful.

JENKINS 24th Nov 2018 13:48

Very hopeful indeed. Has been active for a long time. Useful field, as was Leavesden in relation to London before cinematography took over. All yours.

dook 24th Nov 2018 13:52

Cheers.

I hope there's nothing on here to give it away quickly.

What an intriguing guess.

A long way from Woomera though.

Northern hemisphere.

Newcastle UK NCL. EGNT

Open House if correct

dook 24th Nov 2018 14:50

I wonder what gave that away.

OH

dook 24th Nov 2018 15:26

I shall be more circumspect in future.
