Borneo Labuan ?

Self loading bear 24th Sep 2019 21:51

Labuan it is
But it is Malaysian though
Is it considered part of Borneo when it is in fact a different island?
dook is in control

It is not part of Borneo.

A lot of firwood
Canada?

dook 25th Sep 2019 20:09

No, but you're not far away.

For a split second I thought you would now have chosen Dillingham Alaska.
But no visual match.
It is Alaska?

Thanks dook,

apologies for the delay.
I was very busy on my work today.

I wonder if this airport would be big enough for me

Goedenavond Bear.

Have you taken us back to the area of my last one ?

dook 26th Sep 2019 16:49

Ahhh - "big enough for me "

Big Bear CA.

edit: just looked on GE and it doesn't look right but the runway is in the correct direction.

Looked at some more recent photos which are much better. I think your image is quite old.

dook 26th Sep 2019 18:32

If I am correct it will be OH.

Self loading bear 26th Sep 2019 20:19

Big bear CA it is

I don't see a terminal building. Might be PPO.

A clue would be useful.

Russell Gulch 27th Sep 2019 15:08

Here's a clue:

dook 27th Sep 2019 15:22

Cheers.

They look distinctly American to me.

Russell Gulch 27th Sep 2019 16:02

It is in America. The prop has some significance.

dook 27th Sep 2019 16:07

It looks like it might be a Curtiss-Wright electric propeller, so does it have a connection with the company ?

Perhaps an air race.

Russell Gulch 27th Sep 2019 20:33

It is indeed that prop, dook, but no connection with the company or an air race. Further clue: The aircraft it came from is a P38
