March FIeld is outside of Riverside about 60 miles east of Los Angeles, it’s on the 215 south of the 60. It used to be a SAC base but now the Reserves have it, theres usualy 6-7 c-17 and 15 or so KC-135 there.
thanks for the help, i thought it was a mossie but wasn’t quite sure. two merlin 25 right hand engines were nearby but nothing else.
the parts are located at chino airport in california (kcno).
not quite vintage but nearby were 4 single seat saab j-35 draken and a two seater, all in storage,
no registration numbers visable though.
