Ah. got it now. Anyone who has any photos to post, feel free to do so. I have run out of photos of OBX airports. Love trying to work out which aerodrome they are. Cheers Bernie -

Hi Graeme. The airport is YBBN, Brisbane International. The photo looks like it was taken from the Airlines Maintenance Area but I can't work out what the two light aircraft are doing there. VH-BLI gives it away as it appears to be based at Archerfield. The shape of the terminal looks like it did when I was last there. Cheers Bernie -

Here you go. An Orbx Partner Airport for X-Plane. The control tower is a dead giveaway. Cheers Bernie -

Too easy Gerold. YMLT Launceston Tasmania. You removed the obvious reference but you did not do anything about the one near the doors, -

Well done Gerold. Yes it is Perth. We were saying goodbye to our visitor from Anchorage Alaska who stayed with us for two weeks a couple of years ago. She was actually born in Newfoundland in Canada but lived all of her adult life in the USA. She married an American Air Force Officer so she fell for a man in uniform. She is definitely not English as John would have us believe. Your turn Gerold. Cheers Bernie. -

No, not Brisbane. The answer is closer than you think. Don't forget, an airport done by a Partner Developer for X-Plane. Cheers Bernie -

Well, I made that too easy. YPPH Perth it is. Your turn wolfgo. The photo is actually around the Freight Apron near the threshold of Runway 06. Hence the Australian air Express and Toll Priority freighters in the photo. I hope Jarrad Marshall's version of Perth Airport is not too far away. Cheers Bernie. -

Hi all. This is not a current Orbx airport but hopefully it will be in the very near future. It has been promised by a well known Orbx developer. The photo was taken on 1 June 2008 so the airport has changed quite dramatically. The occasion was a visit to the airport by a group of VOZ Forum members where we were escorted by a forum member and had a good look at a Beechcraft 1900C. The interesting thing about this aircraft is that it was not fitted with an autopilot, the crew had to hand fly it on FIFO flights all around the area. The answer is actually staring you in the face.

Hi Scott. As you are a Victorian resident, it could only have been YMML, YMEN, or YMMB. My first guess would have been YMMB as you live close by. However after I downloaded the photo and zoomed in, I could see that the aircraft belonged to the Air Ambulance. not the Royal Flying Doctor as ikbenik called it. A quick search brought up the Air Ambulance as being based at Essendon. The answer is, therefore, YMEN now called Essendon Fields Airport. Cheers Bernie. PS, I have found a photo of an Orbx airport so I can post that one if I am successful.. -

Correct Greg. Phew, I was beginning to think no-one was going to guess it. My wife and I went to Anchorage last year to visit a friend and she took us to the Alaska Air Museum at Lake Hood. That was a very interesting experience. I was in heaven almost. Your turn to post a photo Greg. Cheers Bernie. -

Close but not quite. Think of the other major airport with a water runway. Cheers Bernie. -

Hi all. The photo was taken at an airport had been enhanced and included as part of a region. It was not designed as a "full fat" airport. -

Hi all. I think you need a hint. Yes I live in Australia but you need to think of where there are an awful lot of seaplanes. It is an Orbx region where they have water runways alongside land based airports. It might be a long way from Australia. Cheers Bernie -

Hi all. Here is an airport that is included in a region. Obviously it is a water runway attached to a land based airport. Cheers Bernie
