Re: [cactuswings 2212] Greenwood photos April 9th 2013

AMA used to have a decent boneyard worthy of a quick drive by photoshoot, but not anymore.

The L-1011s disappeared in 2002.

You can see them and the rest of the boneyard in the 2/1997 image of Google Earth.
The L-1011s were scrapped at the south end.

Sounds like a fun trip!  What L-1011s are at Waco?  No L-1011s exist on the December 11, 2012 Google Earth image.

Are you thinking about the 3 LTU L-1011s that used to reside at Amarillo?

TUP - didnt see anyone around, plus I was on public roads....
GWO - not so much resistance, but I asked if I could walk the ramp and an employee said no - but I could walk the fence..
(I dont know how the farmer would feel about it..!)

All in all a good result, although missing D-ABVA and VB at TUP hurts!!

When you were at Tupelo , did you meet any resistance from the locals there as well as at GWO?
