Ponte Santa Trinita, Alma river. Florence.

Winner.

It wasn't too difficult but the original version would have been much more identifiable so I cropped it.

Sorry about that thought I have checked in and not seen the response.

Hmm... a rock face. Gee... wonder how many of those there are???

Kauai Hawaii?

Sedona, AZ

Sedona, AZ

Correct
Ya, like that was so hard.

The color of the rock and it's likely proximity to an airport would have made that an easy find even if someone had not been there before, but knew someone would recognize the Vortex in the picture.

I googled "red biplane," "rides" and "cliff" and up came Red Rock Biplane Rides. Bingo. Hear you go.

Sibenik, Croatia.

 

[pvpeacock]

Bingo Minky. Beautiful spot. You're up

The Croatia part wasn't too difficult. I figured out it was Sibenik by finding the church.

 

[Newsman]

D'OH! I was thinking it was somewhere in the Mediteranian.

Puerto Vallarta, Mexico

 

[Minky]

Puerto Vallarta, Mexico

I figured that would be an easy one. You be's up!

 

[pvpeacock]

I've only been there once, but I remember the coastline and the distinctive church.
Here you go:

That was fast. Pilot, you're up.

Looked up "colorful Alaska Marina". It was way down the page but did not take long. Looks beautiful.

This image is BFE, but there are clues to the image. I will answer questions to help narrow it down.

 

[pvpeacock]

Well the plane's registered in Newport Beach, CA and it looks like there are some islands offshore, but I can't find a small airport which seems to match....yet.

Catalina Island?

 

[Photopilot]

Catalina Island?

Catalina's airport is at the top of the mountain with drop offs on either side, or so I have been told. As far as I know only airport in the Channel Islands near the water is on San Clemente. Unless an admiral has a really sweet beach house........ this is not on any of the Channel Islands.

 

[Newsman]

Palm Springs?

 

[wyowolf]

googling "runway beach resort".... produces unexpected but desirable results!!
