Sorry - navigation's my bag, as it were.

Asters - railways are good - especially as they glint nicely in the moonlight.

Anyone got anything? where's the dook?

dook 23rd Mar 2020 19:09

dook is here, but I have a challenge up on the silhouette thread.

I think 56 might mean IFR.

Auxtank 23rd Mar 2020 19:22

Thought so.
See you over on the silhouette thread.

Should not be difficult as BOAC was only a small operator compared to today’s Airlines?

Hong Kong?

Sorry for disappearing mid-challenge there. I'll be interested to find out where this is, if only because it looks very much like my local. It isn't, by the way. I'll take a stab at Gander.

Tokyo Haneda

Jensdad,
You will have to stay tuned a little longer it is not
Honk Kong
Tokio
nor Gander

dook 24th Mar 2020 17:54

USA or South America ?

Auxtank 24th Mar 2020 17:56

Are we in the Far East?

nvubu 24th Mar 2020 18:00

Is that a KLM tail top right? If so hazard a guess at Schiphol?

JENKINS 24th Mar 2020 18:16

Military Airlift Command.

Think it might be Bangkok....tropical weather,lightweight clothing,USAF C54,couple of Beech 18s,possibly couple of other mils ,left upper...dolly with umbrella...

ID of the MATS C-54 is probably correct.
(thanks for this find, I can now present my son with a whole lot of his “own” aircraft!)
The twin engine to be a KLM is highly unlikely.
Weather assessed correct.
Not in the Far East

Nice to see such a great crowd on the search.

Palisadoes, Jamaica.

I have not missed it all.
If I don’t answer it, it should say enough.

But not Jamaica.

Yes, In the neighborhood as being
USA or South America
(and tropical weather)

"I have not missed it all.

I seem to have missed something here. If you do not answer then I understand you mean correct. This should be interesting.

Must be Central America then. If that's correct then I assume you will remain quiet.
