Sorry for the delay, I'll be back as soon as I locate a suitable challenge. However, if anybody has anything ready to go - OPEN HOUSE!

OK....I'll start......North America?

No. A careful look at the architecture may assist in determining the locale.

I think it might be Germany. Anywhere near Freidrichshafen?

Aveiro Aerodrome

Established in 1917 as a French Hydroplane Base with Portuguese support the Military facility of São Jacinto, Portugal. Judging from GiggleEarth, most of the buildings are still there. 40° 39' 30" N 08° 44' 00 W

RegDep is correct. San Jacinto, Portugal it is! Yes, several structures still stand. Well done. Your turn.

No idea where it is, but I don't like the look of that crosswind!

They themselves described it: "Although, again this year, we had the Weather Gods not necessarily sympathetic, at least it was mostly dry."

950 aircraft movements, nevertheless, they say. But I don't know if the A380 fly-by counts in or not…..

Must be `im Deutschland`..?

Tannkosh Fly-In 2008 (Tannheim)

RegDep 7th Aug 2011 10:43

Correct sabredog, Tannheim Airport, Tankosh Fly-in (but I think 2010, the weather was bad again)

Over to you :ok:

Is this "Which Aerodrome" or "Which housing development"?

I can see three (ex) runways there. Not a clue where it is though.

Gentleman,
Not wishing to inadvertently stall this thread,and as it now transpires that there is some doubt over the exact name/location of the Airpark, I shall withdraw this challenge and declare;
"Open House".
With apologies.

spook 9th Aug 2011 19:59

...but roughly where did you think it was? It's a very intriguing challenge!
