I assumed since the image was old, it was a pre-Thompsonfly Britannia Airways 763. On closer inspection, I can see how it could be different. Keep the guesses coming, until we get a definitive answer.


In the meantime:

So you did, sorry the thread is getting a bit large and I guess my brain skipped it in skimming through. A quick cheating check with the co-ordinates from the last airport image does indeed confirm it as Brindisi. I'd like to try this one out, probably only easy for people from SW Ontario, but I can provide more hints if people want them.
