Which Aerodrome Mk IV
Australia.
Well done, it is indeed RAAF Laverton.
I thought the Demons might have been a clue - note the thin band circling the fuselage behind the roundel, indicating 21 (City of Melbourne) Squadron RAAF.
Over to you....

Thanks very much Dora - a lovely image. I had fun following the Demons. Going back in time now :

rough looking spot - is the main hangar wrecked???
Wen I blow up the picture it looks like it's not in good shape? Not long after WW1 I'd guess - somewhere in NW Europe.
I just can't get the registration at max enlargement
Now to do a "What Aircraft" divination

And for the aviation enthusiasts:
About same period as previous post, the hangar is in the upper middle.
