The cockpit shot has me completely foxed, but the 2 subsequent pics raise hope...
Malaysia? |
No but a similar climate..........

The flower garlands look Indian.
I see some similarities with the hilly terrain beside Veer Savarkar International airport. (Port Blair on the Andaman and Nicobarese islands) Or must we go further West? |
We are not in the Andamans or Nicobars - further west young man - but not too far........ The airport has had several names - one of which is serious mis-leading......

Jenkins is correct - China Bay, aka Trincomalee https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....3ecc0d29bc.jpg RAF China Bay - main entrance 1957 |

No, not in Europe, further South.

West Africa then?
|
Wiki says a landlocked country in East Africa.
The photograph was taken by a Mossad operative whilst flying a light aircraft - posing as a "pampered English hunter." :) |
