Umm...I shall have to up my game substantially. Congrats dook! and back over to you. |
You shouldn't have given two good clues so early. Better to wait for questions before you do. ;)

Still Warsaw Pact ?
|
Not any more.
|
Is it a dummy airfield in a training area?
|
It was an active military base until abandoned for a political reason.
|
Sperenberg?
|
Another strike for JENKINS.
Sperenberg as it is now. |
Thanks. One of the few in the old 'East' which have not been covered with solar panels. Now this spot. My travels in small aircraft have taken me far and wide. The community here https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....731f2fb871.jpg
made me very welcome one summer evening when I needed coffee and runway lights for a later departure. My passengers aroused considerable interest. |
Looks like the UK but that would be most unusual for you.
France ? |
Not France.
|
It certainly looks like Europe.
This could end up as a country-by-country chase around. |
You must remember my propensity to answer solely the question asked, rather than answering a fleeting thought. There is a French connection, since there is a tale that Claret originated 40 minutes down the road from here. Would you like another 'Angle?'
|
That wouldn't do any harm.
|
Can't find anything about a claret tale, but might the challenge be in Spain ?
|
Not Spain. Your surmise of England is correct. What about the 'Angles?' I am not English, but I recognise the implication. Then, of course, it is WIWOL country, and those herein will recognise this cognomen.
|
So... is it in Germany, perhaps near Gutersloh?
|
No, definitely English WIWOL country, and really quite close to the former Lightning airfield.. This little field enjoys a decent relationship with its nearby military neighbour. As a visitor, I really enjoyed Lightning Gutersloh.
|
And now it is Horlicks time. Yuck, nasty stuff. No cryptic clue there, goodnight.
|
Elmsett, which is quite close to Wattisham. OH if correct.
