dook is in the seat not me as it was an open house "with conditions" - as I have noticed that whenever an OH has been declared lately, regulars are jumping straight in (been guilty of this myself) instead holding off for a few hours to let others have a chance.:)

If no-one had popped in, I'd have taken up with the challenge I was putting together - which I have ready now.

Ah yes... the old hurry hurry hurry. Then silence for 13 hours because it's nighttime in the UK. It seems some of the regulars don't understand the reasons we have the (simple) rules we have on this thread. It would be SO easy to keep the thread moving at a regular pace (as it used to) if people followed those basic rules. It's the internet. Look up "global".

Sigh....

I'm conscious of the time zones involved here.

Accordingly I have removed my challenge and declare OH.

I'll post mine if there are no other challenges ready to go?

I was waiting for a "non-regular" but we might have waited all day.

I have several ready but please go ahead (and also check PM).

You remember I mentioned gliders, well, here's another glider - taking off on the mission.

No need for the road this time, just the location :)

The same mission as last time I assume.

If so, we might be in Italy.

Not the same mission, and we aren't in Italy.

What led me to that thought was that you said the mission.

It's not as if they are going to return for another mission :)

Atterbury...?

It isn't Camp Atterbury (if that is where you meant).

Market Garden ?

More like combat conditions perhaps. I acknowledge lack of theatre stripes, and no obvious sign of the 'snatch,' but how about Lalaghat in Assam?

Arrgghhh........... and I had quite a few images for this. Jenkins has hit the nail on the head Lalaghat it is.

I thought I might keep this going for a while, keeping you in Europe, before I revealed the Indian link - mules, palms and suchlike. I also though Lalaghat may be a bit obscure as there is very little info about it on the web.

Here are some other images I had lined up.

Thanks., good photographs. Now this. Never landed there, but on my single ground visit there was a machine which features in my logbook.

Etampes, France ?

Not Etampes.

Cyprus trees - Italia?

WAIT; Not Etampes, mais France?

Is it a maintenance field ?
