An equally good evening to you, dook! Do I detect an Italian twang in your last piece of information? Is it Comiso?

dook 15th Aug 2019 21:10

Italy it is - standby whilst I look for Comiso….

Not Mafia island.

North Italy.

Down in Sicily, opposite end of Italy from Hungary :)

The only new airport that has been planned in N Italy that I'm aware of is the Chinese backed "Europe1" which was planned to be near the planned Breschia Verona high speed train line

I can't find an exact location - but it was going to be huge Project Watch - Europe 1 - Airport World Magazine

Seems to have been around Montechiari where there are already two fields - Ghedi AFB and Breschia-Montechiari but neither of them look anything like the GE image above

Morning Asturias.

You are getting warm.

Asturias56 16th Aug 2019 09:32

well if it was going to be a new airport it has to be some distance from any current major airport as I don't think anyone is planning to close any of the current ones...

N or South of the River Po?

dook 16th Aug 2019 09:56

South of the Po and almost exactly south of Ferrara.

Try Tuscany. :)

Aeroporto di Sienna.....................

My landlord would have a fit at describing it as "North Italy" - it's halfway to the Hell that is Rome in his book................

doubt it 'll ever get permission to expand TBH

dook 16th Aug 2019 12:56

Apologies for the delay - I have been out for lunch.

Sienna it is and over to you.

Asturias56 16th Aug 2019 14:31

Let's see...................... I noticed this a few weeks ago when traveling by - no longer used as an airfield I'm afraid

Looks like the back of a Porsche Carrera
so probably not India?
I hope you have more clues or photos?

Asturias56 16th Aug 2019 17:02

Hmm post didn't work try again.....................

Now nicely landscaped in places - lots of offices etc

That's not a clue mate - just a field of trees.

That hangar looks fairly big - airships ?
