I have been looking for posts by Brakedwell.

edit: got something possibly better.

Near Bengaluru ?

In terms of 'near' in that amazing landmass, yes. My father spoke with admiration of the beer in WW2 Bangalore. Keep looking, I had never heard of this place until sent there.

Is your image orientated to north ?

Tirupati I think.

Tirupati, looking North. The RAF squadrons clue referred to the status of 'Hyderabad' squadrons, receiving benificence from the Nizam of that Princely state, and drawing attention down towards that area. My first Squadron was a 'Uganda' outfit, though I doubt that Idi Amin knew much about it.

To you.

Good challenge. SpiceJet led the way.

Western England?

No - eastern....

Southern UK...?

Yes...…………..

There is a photograph on the Interweb of a line of shiny bare-metal 'Maggies' on an apron at Woodley, albeit at a different angle. Buildings unconvincing, but worth a shout.

I'll go for Redhill. OH if correct.

Redhill it is R2G2.

OH is called.

PM very shortly for JENKINS.

I've flown out of it at least once and around that area several more times. Although that was 40 years ago there was something familiar about it. I suspect the photograph was pre-June 1940 as, I believe, flying training ceased then as the skies around that area became quite crowded.

Late '39 or early '40.

Polish training - Fairey Battles.

Redhil, interesting. Never been https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....b57b48768a.jpg
there. Have been relatively close to this next field which has not featured for some time.

A parting shot at bedtime. Field in existence for a long time, 3 runways in WW2, and I cannot see any Sign of 'The Goat.'

Good morning.

Italy ?

Grey morning. Not Italy I fear. USAAF units apparently used the field, B17 the machines, and the two units are extant if Wiki. is to be believed.
