Or South Africa.

I think the L39 is ZU-JET, so probably South Africa?

Carnarvon?

TCU 25th Nov 2022 07:46

teusje....Carnarvon Airfield (FACN) it is...the floor is yours

Gateway to the Great Karoo in the Northern Cape, the airfield is the closest aerial access to the MeerKAT/SKA radio telescope site as well as serving the charming Karoo town of Carnarvon and adjoining communities. At 4,150ft AMSL this is a place where you need your performance charts handy if you are planning to fly on a baking hot Karoo day

The six runways (16/34, 05/23 and 12/30) snapped by myself from a Comair 737 flying JNB-CPT

Doesn’t look like your backyard Woensdrecht

teusje 25th Nov 2022 17:09

No, it does not. Long way from my backyard.

North America?

North America is correct.

Alaska??

teusje 26th Nov 2022 21:44

No, not Alaska either. Asturias was closer.

Then the Great Lakes?

Asturias56 27th Nov 2022 08:09

teusje 27th Nov 2022 08:29

It might indeed be Maine.

teusje 27th Nov 2022 12:25

Matinicus Island it is.
You have the floor, Asturias.
