Road is running roughly north south - north being to the left of the image.
It is the D25 - keep going north and look where the watercourse alongside the road then crosses it.

dook has this one as I was looking for the D25/Route de Callask, so you have named it.

Here's the next image of the film:

control passes back to dook.

I think Dook is correct but has not regonised the area.
The photo is taken in SE direction from above Les Grands Esclans.

Dook to close the house when I am correct.

I'll give dook has this one as he did state 2 miles north of Le Muy and named the road correctly, even though he wasn't 100% on the exact location

dook 24th Jan 2019 19:09

I got as close as I could.

It becomes easier for everyone when someone gets close

Dook to close the house when I am correct

I am not sure what this means.

I think we should remember that English is not his primary language.

The only person who can "close the house" is the original first thread poster.

If he deletes his first post the thread will evaporate.

dook 24th Jan 2019 21:09

Err...…..no it isn't, my challenge is above.

WTFO ?

I've spent too long here today and am going to climb to two feet and level off.

Goodnight.

JENKINS 24th Jan 2019 22:03

Bed-time here also. Dishforth?

Good morning Everybody!

English is indeed not my first language.
No bad intentions!

I only meant that when my answer would be better than Dook’s I would not declare open house but I would pass the keys of the house to dook.

In the mean time nvubu already handed the controls/keys to dook and my post crossed.

Later today i have to spent 4 hours on the airport So i might be able to earn the keys back.
First 3 hours drive through very rainy Greece.

Good morning all.

It's not Dishforth.

I should add that my challenge is orientated about 045 degrees true.

Looks Classic Fliegerhorst Luftwaffe A-shape.

Not Germany.

kenparry 25th Jan 2019 09:37

The field pattern looks English. Are we in the UK?

dook 25th Jan 2019 09:51

The pattern is certainly like the UK and that's where we are.

dook 25th Jan 2019 10:35

I'll be back around 1330Z.

nvubu 25th Jan 2019 12:24

Is this a current(ish) image that has been aged to look as if it is 1940s?

dook 25th Jan 2019 12:33

No - It's a real photograph as the airfield was.

kenparry 25th Jan 2019 12:54

The runways look to be too short for a bomber base, so can we exclude E Anglia and Lincolnshire?

dook 25th Jan 2019 13:11

Yes you can. No bombers.

If anyone would like I can post a GE overhead view as it is now (or very recently was).

Auxtank 25th Jan 2019 16:17

Gloucester?
