Guinea Airways Junkers G31 at Wau or Lae, PNG?

Noyade 4th Apr 2012 12:44

Too slow....
Was also going to say Wau...

Certainly PNG. Not Lae or Wau. The ID I have is of a place not too far from Wau. Picture taken in the late 1930s, I suspect.

Another quick stab mate. The article also mentions a Bulolo Aerodrome? Is your Junkers G-31 the "Bulolo.1 Paul?"

Noyade has it and is in control.

The caption says that the Bulolo airport was used as a golf course when planes were not expected. . G. Earth has what looks like a runway SE of the center of town. Maybe that is the old aerodrome, not when GE has the airport symbol.

The plane registration is VH-UOV.

We're not ignoring it, we're just temporarily flummoxed, tried all the obvious stuff and still working on it. :) LFH

Looks rather like RAF Thorney Island.

MReyn24050 6th Apr 2012 09:22

Es ist in Deutschland, glaube ich. Travemünde-Priwall.

sabredog 6th Apr 2012 09:26
