VH-KDK Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 Under the nose of the Cessna is the Society Aardolie gas complex an a small village of Langelo in Noordenveld region of the Netherlands. The village can be traced back to 1255 when it was called Langel and over the years has changed it's name to Langeloe then Langeloo finally to it's present name.

I reckon it is green with all the agriculture and rain. It is certainly much greener than western Texas! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice shot Martyn, it's not always that green in the Netherlands, can be much darker as well depending on the season. It's not far away from where I grew up.
