Still in Germany?

dook 16th Dec 2018 16:26

Not this time.

There is a clue to it's use in the image.

Military use
Would this mean military only?
Fairly dry and sandy soil.

dook 16th Dec 2018 18:14

Yes - military.

I think the image was taken in the summer and the grass appears dry. It's not sandy there to the best of my knowledge.

Poland or Czech ...?

dook 16th Dec 2018 18:25

The former.

Rosyjskie samoloty

Świdwin

Lot of highway strips in Poland.

Thread drift for `dook`,
there`s a big green cat prowling around B`waters....

dook 16th Dec 2018 19:35

nvubu gets a direct hit.

sycamore - a green Jaguar ? Wheressa ?

sycamore 16th Dec 2018 19:37

Dook,next to W`Bridge...
XX741

dook 16th Dec 2018 19:40

Got B`waters but not W`Bridge.

Have now. Too many pops.

nvubu 16th Dec 2018 20:07

Thanks dook.
I'm going to declare an Open House for this as I've just found my next challenge but I don't want to rush it as I want to look at the images and read the text first.

dook 16th Dec 2018 20:12

sycamore,

That's one Jaguar which isn't in my logbooks.

Some clues in the old but you'd be wise not to pitch your tent too close.

Are we in Australia?

chimbu warrior 17th Dec 2018 08:48

Darwin by any remarkable chance?

Checklist Charlie 17th Dec 2018 08:59

I'm thinking Oakey Army Aviation.

CC

dook 17th Dec 2018 09:25

There's enough evidence to suggest military and the tower at Oakey is a perfect match.

Who to choose?
CC "thought" and Dook made a perfect match!


Let's allow CC to take the lead.
