Which Aerodrome Mk IV
Using great circle mapper with a range from Rea point and a range from Sachs harbor on Banks Island. Then I found Isachsen but still had to correct for the difference between north eastern point of Banks Islands and south western Sachs harbour.

`Fall Out R C`s and J**s.`
I did a `sort of` proof read of the original,which was going to be called,possibly,` Life and times of a 3* Flying Officer`.
The `3* `is a reference to what was/is.? the Officers Annual Confidential Report; A`star` annotation is made on the `cover` to higher Authority that `here comes `trouble`,probably in`red`,.so to get 3 may have been a record...
OTOH,with suitable `direction`,he could possibly have ended up as the `other` kind of 3 star...

St Helena I think - that rock outcrop behind the tower is pretty distinctive!
It rang a bell - there was a long discussion with lots of photographs on ST Helena on here a few years back. And those of us who look art rocks know there are a limited number of places where you'll get that sort of outcrop. My first thought was the Faeroes TBH
Try this one - no trees, no lights no waste bins I'm afraid
