Can Anyone Identify this 5./KG 30 Airfield?

Hi all

There is not much to go on here but I wondered if anyone can identify this airfield occupied by Junkers Ju 88s of 5./KG 30.

The original image is unfortunately very small and I have blown up the copy in the landscape format image as far as possible without it becoming too grainy.

I am not sure where or when the photo was taken so if any of the 'detectives' out there can extract details from what is shown that would be great.

Happy New Year to all!

No fuselage bands so BofB, Blitz (no distemper) or earlier. I am sure the logbook will now help!

Thanks for the expert eye Chris. Sadly I do not have the Flugbuch for this man but I do have loads of photos!

Your observations will certainly help me in the task of getting things into the correct order.

Can it be Aalborg West in Denmark in 1940? The white houses in the background, flat landscape and forest edge might fit?

It could indeed fit.

Thank you
