As it is an airship hall, that strange looking building in the middle of the picture, I tought it could be Essen-Mulheim... but that hangar is green and has large WDL-titels!

So it must be the former Cargolifter factory, that never produced any airship, at Brand near Berlin (never been there).

Here's another one, appy polly loggy for the bad quality (Sony DSP-93 on a hazy day).
I know the place, it is in Germany en route between Warsaw and Brussels.

That's Brand, a former NVA MiG21 base (I think). The Big Building is tropical swimming paradise or something like that.
Answers will be questioned.....

Correct: Brand, former Russian Air Force base (MiG-27's). The big hangar belonged to Cargolifter for a big Zeppelin that was to be used as an air cargo system. Unfortunately the company went bankrupt.

:shock:
Indeed, the first one is Cologne/Bonn (CGN/EDDK), the second is Spangdahlem (SPM/ETAD). But the third one was't over Germany, but over France, it's Fontaine Airport (BOR/LFSQ) near Belfort.

Correct and the facility was converted into a tropical swimming paradise.

Eh, not for me. And is it me, or is it a Yak-40 iso Yak-42? Been looking for pictures of Yak's, but no recognition here.

I'll try a little harder if I find the time.

Yes, Tbilisi Airport (TBS/UGTB).

I thought the YAK in the background is an YAK-42 of Georgian Airways. So I thought when I say that you have to look tot he YAK in the background you will recognize the Georgian Airways and so think about Tbilisi.

Ciao,

Time for some Christmas fun.

This one I took enroute Heathrow - Amsterdam back in '04. Bonus point if you get the other airport/airfield.
Hint: Its very close to the coastline, and as I recall we turned north after takeoff to the west.

Have fun with it.
