Thanks for that very generous clue, Noyade.

Jefferson City Memorial Airport KJEF?

OH if correct.

Done! :ok:
Under 10' of flood water.

Open House has been declared.

Just to keep this thread going - the splotches are significant.

Woomera???

I don't think it's Woomera - the airfield was a classic BoB triangle

Correct continent (the colour gives that away), but not Woomera.

Somewhere near Darwin...?

That would be Noonkanbah, Western Australia.

Open House.

Well done CW - Noonkanbah it is!

Here's a very colourful ramp:

That's W Canada or New Zealand - both of which I know you haunt

You are correct! :E

The original photo showed part of the Cherokee's registration, which would have narrowed it down!

Correct? It can't be both ................... can it??? :bored:

Can't recall seeing that colour paint at a NZ airport, so guessing Canada.

As chimbu has deduced, it is Canada.

In response to your post Asturias, I was being a grammatical pedant for fun - “Correct, it is NZ or W Canada.” :E

Ahhh - so a New Zealand connection in Canada if we go along with Chimbu and not the other way round.

List of locations in Canada with an English name

on wiki gives us New Brighton, Nelson, Lytton in BC. I tried New Zealand names in Canada but no luck

Wiki links show only Nelson appears to have airports - West Kootenay Regional Airport (Castlegar Airport) CYCG doesn't look right and is quite a ways away but there is also Nelson Airport CZNL which looks suitably garish

Asturias has it - Nelson BC.

Asturias has control.

Thanks - had me really baffled for a while................. Looks pretty but you'd want a decent rate of climb to operate there I guess

Try this
