Genair 'Shed' - help wanted

[acklington]

In my collection I have this original slide, which I have just scanned and restored. However I don't know where or who it came from, although I think that it may have been a "Genair" publicity give-away for airports to use. The slide mount was dated "September 1983".

I don't recognise the airport which looks to be European, so please can anyone identify the location?

Not sure if this will help but it could be Plymouth. BCal commuter did fly from there.

Thanks for the suggestion Colin, but I've just googled Plymouth/Roborough, and the images don't match up at all.

It is obviously a bit of a mystery as it hasn't rung a bell with any of the dedicated spotters. Further suggestions will be most welcome, because if I google often enough I'm bound to eventually come across it?

It is a genuine mystery this one. After thirty odd years the background could be very different now looking at how some airports have changed over this time.

When I first saw this, I thought it was Turnhouse but couldn't find any photos confirming it. I've definitely seen those buildings before and I don't think its too far away.
