It might be

Amderma ?

Leshukonskoye ?

I'm not saying I'm giving up...
I'm saying that I'm taking a break from googling "remote russian airfields" and getting image pages and pages of broken/ bent and burned-out aircraft.
It's a little depressing.

….and I'm doing close-up guided tours on Google Earth.

The tower at Mezen looks very similar.

Mezen..65.52N 44.13E photo shows similar building...OH if correct..

missed dook`s post...

Reckon you've nailed it there dook. Good shot.

What made things difficult for me earlier was GE not behaving itself so I couldn't zoom in close enough to see airfield buildings.
(A poor craftsman blames his tools...)

Good challenge Asturias.

Mezen it is Gentlemen -

it has a very interesting Control Tower.......


OH it is................

But I didn't call OH !

Apologies - you're right - it was Sycamore jumping the gun :uhoh: or Sycamore and Dook can fight to the death for who got it......................

I think Dook has control - and deserves it - there are a lot of ghastly little fields in N Russia.............. you can go mad looking at GE (see Maryland above)

Sycamore did not jump the gun.

He posted and then realised I already had.

Interesting article here: https://www.rbth.com/travel/328195-r...ooden-airports
on Russia's wooden airports. Asturias' beastly Mezen is featured.

yes - really interesting - you'd have got the nice sunny blue picture earlier but I was googling (unsuccessfully) useful things about Mezen to use as clues and came across it

I knew the Google Wizards here would get it in a flash - hence the fog shrouded picture

Never went - a colleague did go in the early '00's looking to see if you could use it the harbour to land large pieces of kit .... no - but he did mention the Tower to me . I was working more around Murmansk & Archangel................

So to whom are you giving control ?

An interesting part of the world definitely.

Come on dook - your go!

OK - I wasn't sure from what Asturias said.

Tinypic update.

The site says that I have no images or albums, so it looks like that's the end of it.

The challenge above has been directly uploaded to this thread courtesy the PPRuNe uploading facility.

Asters can be vague on the win. He must have "nipped out" for a jar/ dinner/ job (which he won't be happy about, etc)/ a multitude of reasons.

That looks like thoroughly inhospitable terrain.

Oz ?

Blimey - what a good tee shot !

A yes to Oz.

Easy! The very distinctive Woodstock (south of Townsville).

OH if correct....
