Yeh, we got there and my dad and brother walked up to the gate and it opened lol :D, we could of walked right on to the airfield! It shut again about a minute later then Bob walked out and told us about the tour so we took it!
Bob would let us take pics of the ones that were basically scrap metal, eg the Hawaiian DC10, KLM 747-200, Gemini DC10, Delta Tristar which all had logos and the liveries still on, but in another area was the Air Canada 767’s, Southwest 737-200’s and Zip 737-200’s which the airlines allowed no pics apparently :rolleyes:
There is alot of interesting and weird stuff inc Convair 990 (as you come in to the airport), a Roton C9 Rocket supposed to launch into space which never did. Also, while I was there the Orbital DC10 was there (N140SC)
One thing I found out is they keep the doors open on all aircraft so that the planes can breath as when the sun gets in, it makes the interior very hot and will wear it away, even though they do find all sorts inside eg birds and other creatures
Thanks
