ddavid 149 Posted December 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2011 Here's another... Now you can see the airfield! Cheers - Dai. Link to post Share on other sites
allardjd 1,853 Posted December 29, 2011 Report Share Posted December 29, 2011 I'm going to take a wild-arsed guess here that this is from some recently reviewed add-on scenery, from, oh, say around October of this year??? Not having said scenery I haven't a clue which airport, but if I'm right this might put others on the scent. Then again I could be all wet. My first set of hunches at the opposite extreme latitudes didn't pan out at all. John Link to post Share on other sites

ddavid 149 Posted December 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2011 1. @ John - it's default FSX - sorry! 2. @Rob - no, it's just a misty morning... Clue: special Gecko's come from this place. Cheers - Dai. Link to post Share on other sites
allardjd 1,853 Posted December 29, 2011 Report Share Posted December 29, 2011 Well, that pretty much eliminates my thoughts of Greenland. No lizards there... (dialing back latitude settings...). John Link to post Share on other sites

ddavid 149 Posted December 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2011 O.K, a couple of additional clues - here we are, Base Turn... And, here's the view from the nearest land... It's a lovely spot - but mind the guana, Bwana!! Cheers - Dai. Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,495 Posted December 30, 2011 Report Share Posted December 30, 2011 Spooky looking place Dai! Link to post Share on other sites
allardjd 1,853 Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 Tough one... Just a wild guess mainly - White Grass - NVVW, Tanna, Vanatu. Very low conficence level on this one. By the way, per Wiki, "special" Geckos come from most everywhere - that wasn't much help. John Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,495 Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 It's a lovely spot - but mind the guana, Bwana!! Cheers - Dai. Before I go off to search, did you mean guana or guano?, Bwana?!! Link to post Share on other sites
ddavid 149 Posted December 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 Well spotted! It is, of course, guano!! This place was renowned as a source of fertilizer in the nineteenth century - great for your tomatoes! @ John - yep, there's plenty of 'em around - all from different places... Cheers - Dai.
