Since returning from Hendon yesterday evening I have scoured the countryside around Berkhamsted and located this photograph. Thank you Britain from Above for my tickets to the Open Cockpits event and the opportunity to view the wonderful Britain from Above exhibition which inspired me to look again.

My money would be on this being somewhere in The Chilterns but I can't narrow it down any more.
