Neither of those two, but you've found the correct island. Try "Up Island" from Victoria. :)

Nanaimo harbour?

Stranraer 26th May 2023 15:30

Correct, Nanaimo Harbour Water Aerodrome (ZNA / CAC8). I was strolling round the harbour when I captured those pictures. My kind of harbour! :)

If it's who I think it is ...................... :eek:

the challenge looks like somewhere warm - also driving on the right side of the road.

Smoggy - could be Indonesia or the Sub-continent

Lots of turboporps almost certainly for domestic

621andy 28th May 2023 10:49

You're on the right lines...

Asturias56 28th May 2023 11:58

Thinking about it it can't be Indonesia or the Subcontinent as they drive on the correct side of the road. (well, it's variable in Indonesia I agree) so perhaps China?

621andy 28th May 2023 12:18

Getting closer...They used to drive on the left here but a fortune teller persuaded the then leader to change:rolleyes: And yes, driving on the right is a flexible arrangement...:uhoh:

Asturias56 28th May 2023 16:59

Ahhhh -that makes it easy - Yangon/Rangoon I think?

621andy 28th May 2023 18:14

Asturias56 You are correct once again! RGN/VYYY has been modernised in recent years on both sides of the runway with new terminals and long term parking aprons on the west side...which have proved useful since Covid and the other problems forced a downturn in business.
However no crates of Spitfires were found during the renovations:rolleyes:

I shall wait until nightfall to post a new challenge.........................

Asturias56 29th May 2023 16:56

here we go....................

Well we have to start somewhere…

Big enough for 737s, interesting lack of apron markings, looks like high ground to the north and possibly east-west runway with a tower and hangar to the NW. Mediterranean?

621andy 30th May 2023 08:39

Wild stab in the dark: Grenoble-Alpes Isere(St. Geoirs)....It's as good as any guess and there aren't many clues there:}

Asturias56 30th May 2023 09:05

A long way from the Med
