Everyone seems to have gone to sleep, so I'll start with a question.
The railway station in the background looks distinctly un-English so possibly Holland/Germany?

aviate1138 2nd Sep 2012 05:09

Looks Slovakian/Polish?

Phileas Fogg 2nd Sep 2012 05:32

Couldn't possibly be Holland, there's no such country, possibly Netherlands :)

sabredog 2nd Sep 2012 07:01

Nearly there,aviate1138.

sabredog 3rd Sep 2012 19:35

Surprised that the thread has stalled after aviate1138's post.
This airfield is to be found in Poland.

chevvron 4th Sep 2012 02:17

Only grass airfield I know there is just outside Szczecin but it's not that one.

Davidsoffice 5th Sep 2012 13:39

I'll have a go at Jelenia Gora...... Took a while...OH.

sabredog 5th Sep 2012 15:21

Well done,Davidsoffice.
Jelenia Gora on the Polish /Czech border is correct.
Thank you for persevering with the challenge.

jindabyne 6th Sep 2012 14:12

sycamore 7th Sep 2012 19:43

jindabyne 7th Sep 2012 22:19

Lordflasheart 7th Sep 2012 22:37

Australia perchance ? LFH

jindabyne 7th Sep 2012 22:50

No mate, not Oz. Northern hemisphere

aviate1138 8th Sep 2012 06:43

Surrounding cultivation looks Scandinavian?

Fareastdriver 8th Sep 2012 07:26

Wherever it is, they play golf.

jindabyne 8th Sep 2012 09:55

Here's the view from the airfield --- Europe

jindabyne 9th Sep 2012 09:08

Not Scandinavian aviate - think where you were previously!

Gulfstreamaviator 9th Sep 2012 09:28

swiss
 
another wild guess...

re golf, a closer look, suggests not gold bunkers in centre of pic, but grass farming.?

glf

jindabyne 9th Sep 2012 10:04

Mmm, probaly not gulf. I see what you mean, but that pattern on the grass is very widespread around the countryside, and might simply be the local 'method' of arable farming.

India Four Two 9th Sep 2012 11:35

Those are quite big mountains in the second picture. Can we narrow the location down to somewhere in or near the Alps or possibly Spain or the Balkans?

Cows getting bigger 9th Sep 2012 11:39

I was thinking the same, Alps, Germany/Austria? It ain't Wales. :)

jindabyne 9th Sep 2012 13:23

Try the Tatras chaps --

sabredog 9th Sep 2012 14:02

sabredog 10th Sep 2012 19:55

Not Renfrew,Chevvron. Quite some distance away from Scotland.

jindabyne 10th Sep 2012 20:01

Durban airport?

sabredog 10th Sep 2012 21:50

Not Durban Airport,jindabyne, but the correct continent.

aerobelly 10th Sep 2012 22:46
