Not really. It was built for these - although I suppose that is true for an awful lot of the airfields built in the region.

You said closer to the Marianas.

Tinian ?

nvubu 16th Jan 2020 17:27

I said the Marianas are closer to this airfield than the Admiralty Islands - but you are still over 1000 miles away with all your suggestions.

I was spoofed by that particular B29. :\

Philippines maybe.

nvubu 16th Jan 2020 19:43

Not in the Philippines either.

The P47 makes me think we are not too far from Japan possibly.

nvubu 16th Jan 2020 20:43

Correct - not too far from Japan - 0 miles in fact.

Bolo, Okinawa.

nvubu 16th Jan 2020 21:34

Now you have it - Bolo, Okinawa, never used in combat

OK - I'll bite.... (but suspect I'm being set up) ;)

mmmm Switzerland?

dook 17th Jan 2020 08:58

Not Switzerland I'm afraid.

India Four Two 17th Jan 2020 09:02

How about the only country where I've flown in an HB Porter - Yemen?

dook 17th Jan 2020 09:05

Sorry, not there either.

evansb 17th Jan 2020 10:30

Is it an aerodrome in Palestine?

JENKINS 17th Jan 2020 11:26

RAF Masirah?

Asturias56 17th Jan 2020 15:10

Masirah had a much squarer Tower IIRC
