Speaking of airports, I just found a reference to Kenley Airport,


Aerodrome.


and a quick look at Windows Live Local showed me that there is indeed
an airport in Greater London that I'd never heard of!


What flies from there? Looking at the spy pictures, i see gliders and
light planes, suggesting it's not used for passenger flights.


Bonus for John - what's this:

? There's a hint in the PS!


Me too. But I bet it doesn't have its own tube station!


Not quite, but it's a stone's throw from Whyteleafe, Upper Warlingham and
Whyteleafe South stations. I'm sure one of those could be renamed
accordingly!


A quick Google found this page:

Interesting.


PS Photo hint - see if you can find out what the building south of it is.


Streetmap.co.uk labels the building "Radiocommunications Agency".

PPS Not that i actually know what that thing is myself!


Once-was-steerable-antenna perhaps?
