Now we're moving.

Iraq.

JENKINS 22nd Mar 2019 15:28

Moving towards what appears to be Sirsenk Airport on the edge of Baghdad.

dook 22nd Mar 2019 16:00

Good try but no.

Siirte,Tina,or Bamerne...?

dook 22nd Mar 2019 17:26

Barmani - built illegally by Turkey without informing the Iraqi authorities.

Nice shot SLB. :ok:

Nine minutes late sycamore, but you might care to take the OH.

OH has been called.

sycamore 22nd Mar 2019 17:54

Actually,it is/was known as Sersink/Tina/Bamerne...Went there once 06/`91,when it was `under costruction/destruction`to p/u some fella believed to be SH,who had a palace nearby...the`terminal` was made of `breeze blocks `and the runway was more of a dirt road...the area around was full of Kurds in large camps....It wasn`t SH,just a `lookalike`...
OH...

" Burner wouldn`t light` says `dook`,as Jenks and SLB look on...!!

Perhaps we should enter this one in “caption of the week”?

dook 23rd Mar 2019 11:04

I warned you that the stall prevention system would cause disaster.

"crashed triplane" produces this:


A.V. Roe stands beside his crashed Avro No.1 Triplane at Wembley, 24 December 1910 after attempting a turn.

`Dook` looked a picture of sartorial elegance in his new flying suit and `turning-trousers`,but still found it difficult when taxiing..!

Dook you are totally correct


Colour=left=0000
is logical as this picture is black-and-white!

picture is also used by FlightGlobal when page not found:

Dook has control
So I hope he handles next flight a bit better!

Cheers SLB

This Colour=left=0000 rubbish occurs every time I highlight a quote in my posts. I don't know why it happens. It doesn't when I post on another site.

However,

Hi Dook, that looks a little like a 1950's Dublin, but the large amount of aircraft and cars makes me less than 100% confident...

dook 23rd Mar 2019 18:39

Hello jensdad.

Maybe you should try a very long swim…...

sycamore 23rd Mar 2019 23:58

Overheard in an Indian restaurant,"more Balti".......
Later...OPEN Door....!

chevvron 24th Mar 2019 00:49

Very similar to the original 1950s design for Gatwick.

India Four Two 24th Mar 2019 02:32

The design of the hangar and the large number of light aircraft, plus dook's comment about "a very long swim" make me suspect that this is a US airport.

Baltimore Friendship International. See Friendship BWI Baltimore Airport History

I can't take credit for this however, as Sycamore's earlier response seems to have been overlooked.
