I have to admit that if you posted pics of any of the airfields I operated from that I probably would not recognise most of them!

Ok I'll post a few UK airfields, and if you've flown over/operated from them, maybe you'll recognize them?

(click on them to enlarge)

This one is closed.....shame.
















Enjoy!

Only just seen this-was away yesterday.

I think the 2nd one is Waddington with Vulcan 607, the one which blasted the runway in the Falklands, parked near the public road now that is has been refurbished.

It is hard to say but I think the 4th one could be Cottesmore.

Correct.

I did not know about 607 though, that is cool to know.

Default Now for something completely different!

Got some North African pics below (given the generic area, 'cause there are lots of places with sand! )













One of these countries has been in the news lately, not for bad news though.....
