You said it is still in use.

Military ?

Maybe it was known as an air service park.

dook 2nd Feb 2020 15:36

'snot Toul is it ?

nvubu 2nd Feb 2020 16:36

It isn't Toul - and I don't think it was known as an Air Service Park. Still part military

An overhead (north is up)

Angers??
OH if correct

dook 2nd Feb 2020 17:24

I think it could be Clermont-Ferrand.

I did think my last image would help with the distinctive runway - the first hard runway ever built. Clermont-Ferrand it is. Over to dook.

Photos from when the 7th Aviation Instruction Center was based there.

Here's another distinctive view - that can still be seen today.

Guessing Channel Islands. Toss of coin says Jersey.

dook 2nd Feb 2020 20:10

What sort of coin are you using ?

Not an island.

To save time, OH if correct.

dook 3rd Feb 2020 18:59

chevvron gets the top banana with Gutersloh, and can obviously shoot in the dark.

He has previously called OH.

Mediterranean?

Right on the spot

Asturias56 5th Feb 2020 08:06

clever picture - not a single shadow visible so hard to tell if we're facing N orS E or W

It looks like the Adriatic coast of Italy maybe? but 3 spots - somewhere quite big??

dook 5th Feb 2020 09:21

A heliport I feel.
