Could be the original Rechlin field? but you say not Germany NOW...............

Wiener Neustadt, West, now Austria

dook - You would miss the target with both shots
Asturias - not Rechlin
dash7fan - not Wiener Neustadt, but it is in Austria.

You can see the runway here.

Deutsch Wagram ?

dook 30th Jul 2019 16:23

…..or Langenlebarn.

nvubu 30th Jul 2019 16:28

It isn't Deutsch Wagram or Langenlebarn.

Although I must admit the image I first posted does look very much like Langenlebarn - but it isn't :)

just going home, so won't answer for a short while.

I have all of them listed.

Is the runway grass or paved ?

Zeltweg was by a canal.

JENKINS 30th Jul 2019 16:33

How about Salzburg?

dook 30th Jul 2019 16:40

Zwolfaxing looks better though.

aka Wein-Zwolfaxing.

JENKINS 30th Jul 2019 16:43

For Sycamore, no, this was an Australian Army Aviation colleague.

nvubu 30th Jul 2019 17:07

Not Zeltweg, Salzburg or Zwolfaxing

dook 30th Jul 2019 17:13

Are you sure Zwolfaxing isn't right?

That isn't Zwolfaxing - I did think that you might query it :)

That airfield is Schwechat or Vienna International today, which is the correct one :ok:

Over to you.

dook 30th Jul 2019 17:26

Sorry - my source gives the original name as Zwolfaxing-Wein, 15km from Wein.

Sod 'tinternet !!

dook 30th Jul 2019 18:16

Sorry - didn't see your control handover edit.

Herewith another in the same vein, but the whole airfield this time.

Usual question

Which direction is North?

Another WW2 Axis airfield??

is it still in use???

that should make up for 12 hours radio silence .......

dook 31st Jul 2019 08:17

Please standby....

dook 31st Jul 2019 08:29

The orientation is about 330 degrees.

Not an Axis airfield, but the photograph is from WW2.

Still in use as an international airport.

Asturias56 31st Jul 2019 09:07

Europe? Or somewhere more exotic??

dook 31st Jul 2019 09:15

It is considered that a part of this country is a part of Europe.
