In fact I'll be amazed if anyone has ever been there.

Sadly, it's only amazing because North Americans don't take part in this thread as they used to.

Can only see 2 aircraft there ;bullseye(centre of pic) 8 o`clock 1600,twin-engine; other at ,1 o`clock 900, which looks like an Me163 in a revetment.....

nvubu 24th Jun 2019 21:46

If it's an Me163 it will be a long way from home as we aren't in Germany - here's a much larger version of the image for you to id any aircraft - clicky,

Some of the fields are tiny and look like they are terraced - maybe Italy? Sicily??

dook 25th Jun 2019 09:28

Maybe Crete.

nvubu 25th Jun 2019 09:43

Not Italy, Sicily or Crete - many miles away from all of these.

dook 25th Jun 2019 10:29

Perhaps we're not in Europe at all.

Maybe a long way east.

sycamore 25th Jun 2019 11:08

It looks like a `prepared` airfield,not hacked out of the countryside,good road,and possibly a rail line(top right.?),maybe part of a bigger airfield...Japan....?
Still visible on GE..?

dook 25th Jun 2019 11:30

I think so too,

I have found photographs of those revetments and they are certainly Japanese.

nvubu 25th Jun 2019 11:37

I did wonder how long you were going to stay in Europe :ok:

I had written - "It is a Japanese airfield, but not in Japan.".

but on further research, I thought I'd better change this to "probably a Japanese airfield, but not in Japan".

Hmm... I better change that again to read "this is not a Japanese airfield, but certainly used by the Japanese" - still not in Japan.

dook 25th Jun 2019 11:50

It's getting better.

Armed against theft....

nvubu 25th Jun 2019 11:55

Still an active airfield, only domestic flights I think.

Bombing quite accurate
