Appreciate what you are saying www but I'm not being pedantic, the name I have bears no resemblance to any of the names mentioned.

Incidentally it would seem that this particular aircraft was originally registered D-AGES earlier when it was with Lufthansa but later became XT-AGE with Euriasia.


Have to turn in now, no doubt someone will have another name when I return in the morning.

As the challenge seems to be stalled, the name I have on my caption is Kunming. As I said earlier, if this is considered to be incorrect then I apologise.

Presumably a declaration of Open House is now the most appropriate way to go.

if it is open house- try this one - I have not checked the list - but I suspect the airport has been listed before ? -nevertheless - it's pissing rain here in Dublin and pprune is entertaining me

Don't know the name but it's about a mile northeast of Newmarket Racecourse. The road is the A11 not Akeman Street.
OH if accepted as an answer.

aerobelly 2nd May 2012 18:46

It certainly is Snailwell, just NE of Newmarket. The line of the old A11 (now renumbered A1304 just here) is the white streak towards the bottom right corner, and the more distinct road that clips the edge of the airfield is the old carriage-drive to Chippenham Hall, which has trees in the park laid out to represent the Battle of La Hogue.

Nothing is visible on the ground now except for a section of peri-track that looks suspiciously wide for a farm track. There's a small amount of flying there still, because Newmarket Model Flying Club have a small field pretty much in the centre of the old airfield.

Probably more than you wanted to know so....

Chevvron declared OH.
