Singapore and Hongkong might be too obvious.
HMS Eagle Sea Kings rescued crew of SS Steel Vendor and delivered them to Subic bay Philippines

The hill profile is at RAF Kai Tak.

It is indeed, RAF Kai Tak where I went to pick up some stragglers when Eagle left for the last time on 27th October 1971. Honkers was a very different place then, and we had a fairly free rein flying around doing various jobs such as lifting equipment to a remote island for the RE to build a water purification plant for the village, same for a lighthouse on the edge of the New Territories with a Chinese gunboat tracking us with the AA to ensure we stayed on our side, landing on the Blue Star ferry pier, etc.

Line ball between Haven't a clue as first in, refined by dook with the actual strip. I hereby nominate dook to carry the torch to the next location :ok:



ps this was the return to Eagle from HK, and a flypast for the Governor where we had half a dozen Sea Kings: 100% serviceability wasn't unusual! :cool:

Thank you JE - a great challenge.

I feel I should offer this to Haven't a clue. If he is unable to take the baton then I will call OH to give the "international" players an opportunity.

Thanks dook; my apologies to all for being tardy in responding but I have been in a car, departure lounge, an aeroplane, several trains and (sorry) a restaurant.

I'm in the air again tomorrow (I'll be close to Kai Tak for the next week), so regrettably it has to be OH.

Mind the girly bars then...….

As we are on an Open House and I'm currently going through the 2019 posts updating the Aerodrome list, I thought I'd set this challenge.

From the Seebee’s book you have?

Certainly is the Seebees. You now just gave to discover where it is.

I was going to start with these two images

Suspect the Admiralties - somewhere like Pityilu maybe.

I had to look up the Admiralty Islands, and I can confirm that this airfield isn't there.

Marianas any closer ?

Yes the Marianas are closer.

Palmyra atoll ?

Palau perhaps?

Blimey, Palmyra is in the middle of nowhere isn't it. Not Palau either.

Looks like some wide open spaces there - once they got rid of the huts.

Is the surface coral ?

Angaur possibly.

Yes, a coral surface, but not at Angaur (had to look that one up as well)

Near Guam ?
