Here goes, chaps! Not too far away, you may have been there on holiday:

The hanger and buildings come from AVSIM:

And I'm using FSX default scenery:

Hope you enjoy your searching! Cheers - David. :!: :?:

I don't have a clue about the airport, but I see runway numbers in white on the grass. Do they really do that, or is it a FS scenery thing? Have never seen it on this side of the pond.

OK, this place has some things in common with the last airport. It's isolated...more later if you need them.

 

This is stock FS9 scenery.

Hmmm...odd taxiway configuration.

Only AC on the ramp. Livery might be a clue, if you can ID it.

Not North up.

Good luck to all, and may the best airport bum win.

Nice one John, time for some investigation into the aircraft.

Well done on these shots too, perfectly posted :cool:

I see you chose photobucket too, welcome to the club.

Cheers

OK, guys, here’s some more hints. I didn’t mean to make it this so difficult.

 

1) English is spoken, in the tower and in the neighborhood.

 

2) It’s isolated, but not obscure - - - trust me, you’ve heard of this place.

 

3) On the other hand, it’s unlikely you’ve ever been there in person, though you may have if you were…invincible.

 

4) The region goes by two names.

 

5) The scenery looks bland in FS9, but the real thing is not much better.

 

6) The A/C livery comes from Traffic 2005.

Exactly right, Mut. Good job. The scenery in your shot doesn't seem to show anything but the runways, and FS9 designates it as EGYP, but that's the place I had in mind. Your turn.

 

I didn't think a forum of Brits would let that invincible clue slip past.

 

By the way, the livery is Aerolinas Argentinas.

Thanks John,

There is a control tower at ground level, at least there was when I took off!

When I made the post I put EGYP, but the screenshot program showed it as SGYP so I changed it, I wonder where it got that from?

A new one will be posted soon.

Cheers

Here's the next airport.

As I think this is quite easy the Sea Hurricane is not particularly associated with this airport but it may have visited there in WWII?

So if Fred doesn't get it in the first half an hour I will give more clues tomorrow, happy guessing!

Default scenery although FS Global SE could be affecting it?
