Huzzah for International Jet-setting !
The bear beat me to it - was just about to post the same link.
It would be a good V-Flyer trip out - Vegas was such a long time ago.

Sadly there are no tours like the one we went on at Mohave.
Surely some V-Flyer has the right coloured card to get us in? [8D][;)]

FWIW the Daily Mail (God bless them) have slightly bigger clearer pictures...

Looking at MHV on Google, there seems to be a lot less aircraft there then when I passed through in 2005. Am I right?

Hay, I've passed this site[:D], in 2003 I think, may have been 2002. To say it was awesome is an understatement. Seemed to go for ever.We still tell people about it.Didn't realise there were so many planes on the planet let alone these being just the 'mothballed' ones.One of those 'wonders' an American road trip throws at you.[y]

Sorry Nick but the bear had faster paws than you !
I also recall a documentary not that long ago about a plane recycler - I think working at this site.
It was an amazing film seeing the guys removing all the re-usable parts before basically shreading all the metal etc to be melted down.
I was amazed at the prices even 'used' parts could be sold on for.

Wow I stand corrected, I wonder when they started that ?
When I checked Mohave was the only place doing tours, this one would be far better !
