Silence is golden.
A clue please sabre. It could be remote, disused, abandoned or just plain third world (am I still allowed to say that?). Google isn't helpful thus far on those counts. Given what looks to be a serviceable flag, I think it may still be 'in use'. J |
The 'old' airport on Montserrat? (probably not as I can't see any volcanic ash, and in any case it's been done before)
|
Neither Montserrat or Nicosia I am afraid.
The terminal building has it's origins in the "Golden Age"of civil aviation,and the airfield (military) is still operational. It is said that a certain country's day begins here! |
Wake Island Airfield?
|
Correct,SilentHandover. Wake Island Airfield, Wake Atoll.

Mel |
Laon Athies Airfield,France.
Thank you for the Aerodrome List update,Mel. |
That is quite correct sabredog, YHC.:ok:
|
|
I really don't think this is going to be correct, but that photo makes me think of Castle Bromwich.
|
Thinking along the correct lines,nacluv,but not Castle Bromwich.
|
Well they look like bi-planes - the hanger gives scale so my guess is Handley Page before they moved - so Cricklewood?
|
It is indeed,Spook. Well done.
The Handley Page Aircraft Factory at Claremont Road, Cricklewood. (1921). |
Thank you SD. Here's the next one.

I think that's Decimomannu on Sardinia (ANOTHER I had lined up for a future potential challenge!).
|
Well done DB! YHC :ok:
|
Mmmm? Spurious use of 'scrambling'?
|
Thanks. Let's see if I can make a current airfield challenge last longer then the customary 12 minutes:

DB,
More than 12 mins. :) Is it in the former USSR? |
Not in the former USSR I'm afraid.
|
Citation Bravo.....
Location..... No idea.......glf
|
Somewhere on Malta?
|
Some way away from Malta, chevvron.
|
Tunis
Wild guess, based on FSU influence, and basic design.
Glf |
Tirupati Airport,Andhra Pradesh,Republic of India.
|
Exactly so Sabredog, all yours. (at least you gave me 8 hours this time before crushing me once more).
|
Thank you,DB.
Open House. |

Fokker D-21s and T-5s at Vliegpark Schiphol?

RAF Culmhead, Devon used by No2 Polish Wing of the Polish airforce during WWII. After WWII used by the Composite Signals Organisation Station which is what the buildings are in the centre of the runways.

10/10! You have control!! Except that 'er be in Zumzett, rather than the land of Devon dumplings. But only just... It's more interesting history includes the fact that it was one of the first aerodromes from which Meteors flew.
I tweaked the photo to give it an appearance of age, but by the time it was taken, Culmhead Radio Station had closed. Having lived in the south-west, I knew that it was a secret monitoring station, euphemistically termed a 'government radio station'.... So, when I flew Vulcans I used to use that big white building as an IP for low-level bombing runs, knowing that the spies couldn't really complain.....:E I knew the place as 'Trickey Warren', but it was also known either as RAF Churchstanton or RAF Culmhead. |
Yep reconised it straight away, fly over it every day when coming in from the north to land on 26 at EXT.
must declare Open House as Iīm currently away on holiday and dont have access to the picīs on my PC at home. OPEN HOUSE ! |

Chipping Ongar?
