Hi,

Are we in British Columbia?

Asturias56 22nd Nov 2019 15:03

No but we are in Canada

India Four Two 22nd Nov 2019 19:47

The next question should be "Is that water salty?"

Asturias56 22nd Nov 2019 20:25

It's not the sea if that's what you mean.................................

Very curious about the r/w markings....looked everwhere but can`t find similar on any airfield or strip....

Are we somewhere on the Great Lakes. I have never seen runway markings like that either. Looks as if there might be a PAPI just peeping out on the left, not that that helps.

I also searched that route. I have found one photo with that parallel striping on a TSB webpage.
no airport mentioned.

Powell river airport could be a match

ea200 22nd Nov 2019 23:00

But that's in BC Bear and Asturias said it wasn't there.

You are right
I did not check that when I found same angle view on airport with ridge on other side of the water.
There are probably 1 or 2 more ridges in Canada.

India Four Two 22nd Nov 2019 23:52

... and probably 1 or 2 more lakes as well!

Is that France then?

chevvron 24th Nov 2019 13:04

Looks more like Manston.

Asturias56 24th Nov 2019 15:38

Think you're right Chevvron....................

Quick ! Hide - we'll have the Doctor posting on here about what a great future it has..........

India Four Two 24th Nov 2019 16:58

You might well think that, chevvron. I couldn't possibly comment.

At least not for four hours. :)

Asturias, it's not France, but you can see it from there!
