The only Bourne, in my knowledge, is in Lincolnshire with Folkingham as the nearest airfield. I hate pendants! Yes, it is Bourn, just over the ridge from Oakington. For many years the dons of Oxford and Cambridge managed to keep improvements to the road at bay. My only visit was in an Aztec, destination Heathrow.

Over to you.

Jenkins, thank you. You are rightly pendantic; in my defence I should explain that my few remaining brain cells took an extra letter from the nearby new settlement of Cambourne - the naming of which cause significant upset to the inhabitants of a similarly named town in the far SW.

I shall give dook a break from derelict WW2 fields. Stand by.

This is neither derelict nor in the UK

In the USA ?

kenparry 8th Dec 2018 20:55

Yes, it is in the USA

JENKINS 8th Dec 2018 20:59

I acknowledge Cambourne, which will keep Culdrose out of the scene for some time.

No more from me tonight; will be on again about 09Z tomorrow.

Short runways and skinny hangars.
General/private aviation only, no airline service there?

kenparry 9th Dec 2018 06:50

Terry: correct

Northeast, possibly upstate New York?

Texas? Looks somewhere in the south.........

kenparry 9th Dec 2018 09:41

Not Texas, but you are closer than the NY suggestion.

A clue:

it is in what Alaskans refer to as "the lower 48"

Not much of a clue - but it does eliminate Alaska and Hawaii

Asturias56 9th Dec 2018 10:07

The State - did they fight for Lincoln or Davis or neither in the Civil War?

dook 9th Dec 2018 10:26

Watsonville California ?

dook: DH with your first shot.

You have control.

dook 9th Dec 2018 11:22

I looked for hours for it.


DH with your first shot.
On the Jaguar force we used to call it 'a bomb in a bucket'.

That looks odd. Europe?

dook 9th Dec 2018 15:24

It is in Europe.

JENKINS 9th Dec 2018 15:28

Chokey therein?
