RE: [cactuswings 2531] Storage & Other News

The P-3s are not military, they are operated by US Customs & Border
Protection, and are dead easy to read off (unusually for a P-3!).

Its a disappointment . It has an active military squadron there of several
P-3 Orion's a 727 and a 734 out front of the Boeing Shop . Most of the
residents are tucked away ramp side which has limited viewing . JAX dont
waste your time . St Augustine has omega 707s , Osprey V-22s Grumman
facility there , but north of JAX in georgia is KBQK , up here are atleast
5 intact 707 Frames , at KSFB , this is your biggest Boneyard around , then
there is KOPF another Boneyard , KMIA has many MRO facilities with dozens of
frames waiting on paint and work. In the pan handle in the town of Crestview
is a very New scrapping operation , Tom Sikes airport .
