Fiji Air - Heron - maybe at Rotuma ?

Asturias56 21st Jun 2021 07:29

Doesn't look like Tonga - maybe Kiribati or Tuvalu?

mgahan 21st Jun 2021 21:06

Asturias has saved me from two tasks this morning: telling Descol it is not Rotuma and posting the clue about the second degree link to Weary Dunlop.

Descol has it with Marekei.
The picture popped up in a search for some historical information this week on the runway construction. Here's what it looks' like these days.

WW2 memorial?

Uk??

OUAQUKGF Ops 23rd Jun 2021 11:16

War Memorial not in UK but in geographical Western Europe. If you find it, it will give you good clue........re-read #133

Asturias56 23rd Jun 2021 13:28

Western Europe non EU non UK - that means Switzerland, The Vatican, Iceland or Norway

Its not the Vatican (unless they've expanded recently) so lets try Norway?

OUAQUKGF Ops 23rd Jun 2021 13:32

Not Eastern Europe........

The first F86s to deploy in Britain arrived at Shepherd's Grove August 1951. (81st Fighter Bomber Group)

Asturias56 23rd Jun 2021 14:54

I asked if it was Norway?

By "not part of the Union" are we talking the EU/ and if so then or now?

Tails look a bit like the 318th FIS but I don't think they ever served in W Europe
