Me too. So this being a recce group it prop is a feldflug hafen. So not a real airport but just a grass lane. But hope the o.p. can say more.
And mr deZeng doesnt miss anything before someone is wondering if that is a possibillity.

Poland

The Schwieben ( the polish Świbie village ) airfield was at the Upper Silesia ( (Oberschlesien). The airfield was built for the German planned attack on Poland in 1939. It was located on fields between Świbie and Radonia villages, about 30 km North of Gliwice ( Gleiwitz ).

DeZeng does not mention it. No facilities there just a strip were one could land or start. There were many of those.
