Nice!

I've flown over and driven next to that AFB more times than I would like
and it's an amazing collection of aircraft.
I've never been by it, but would like to see it.

Start here until you can visit it in person...

Interesting write up he

Where is the place in the desert where they park the old commercial
aircraft?


There is one at Mojave Airport here on California. You can see it from
highway 58 as you cruise across the desert to Las Wages, NV. We also have
one in Victorville. But have not been that way in nearly 30 years, so do
not know what it is like these days.
