Then we are back in France...but not in ancient times - the aircraft era is at odds with the hangar designs...
I'd say that photo was taken in the 60's/ 70's? Mind you - this is a rather splendid Cote du Rhone that I'm sipping from whilst preparing my repast; so forgive if increasingly meaningless RT. .--. .. ... ... . -.. |
The photograph is from WW1 and we are indeed in France again.
e-mail for you on a different subject. |
eM- received.
Going wild on this; it's not that funny little place on the outskirts of Paris is it? Is it St Cyr-L'ecole...? (I have landed there - and on the strength of my landing, I was not permitted to TO) |
It was not on the outskirts of Paris
|
Chalky under-soil - we are in Normandy?
|
Non monsieur.
Go SW - Pas-de-Calais. |

Say after me " dook is a dik"..... You just have to give that old compass a good swing now and again. :E So Pas-De-Calais eh? How about Saint-Inglevert then? |
Now go SE (yes - SE) but not too far.

How about some GPS coordinates? I want to go running back to the safe Magenta Line... |
Looks like an old WW1 airstrip about 1 click due East (I say again, East) of Audembert?
|
54 miles SE.
|
Possible d'Avesne-le-Comte.
That's a wild guess until I pull my charts/ books out in the morning... |
Don't bother.
A direct hit with d'Avesne-le-Comte. Your runway. :ok: |
Thanks dook.
I'm out and about today so; OH |
|
picture blown up a bit

Very neat fence, looks new.
Fresly ploughed field beside runway (i assume) is this a new extension to an existing airfield? Flatened hills. I assume Europe? Ardennes Harz |
Nah, Bear - that's Canada. (It's the light)
