Re: [cactuswings 3407] REQ. Palmdale, Mojave (and Kingman Contact?)

you can get shots from the farm track to S, some bits of bush in the way.
As you approach MZJ turn left just b4 guardhouse, barely 1/4 mile track is to right, comes up alongside the line of 747s with the Hainans at front.

Mariana is accessible beyond the old guard shack but it is still hard to see all equipment stored. I went down 2 weeks ago to see the 3 Hainan 738's that are stored there and although they were clearly visible they were impossible to get photos of.

932ML is now active with USN as 168277.
 
LV-ZPJ easily read from hangar side at VCV last week.
Not sure about N734AG, there's an ex AMX hulk tucked in to hgr line side which I couldn't get a line on. Elsewhere same line read XA-FRJ is readable. Not sure how many were here, haven't scoured pics of the E end crowd to be sure of any possible others.
PS had no trouble driving the dirt road 'peri' with an ordinary rental car. Also there's a huge dirt mound near the QF 767s side, best views from up there.
 
At SBD JA8942 minus parts outside big hgrs nr terminal; '41 inside one behind it.
JA8982, 83 minus parts way away to east side of airfield, All were all white.
 
Has anyone managed access to Marana since it supposedly opened up last year?

Haven't seen ex Air Busan 735, HL7233, at Goodyear for a while now. Probably safe to say it's no longer with us.

Hello all, 

currently putting the finishing touches to Desert Boneyard trip in Oct. In order to prevent wasted trips, I was wondering if some kind soul could help with the following.. I will gladly share information from the trip with you when I return.

Palmdale - have the 787s now all left here now. I know at least two were stored there and I believe they have since departed. We missed them last time. But Palmdale is a bit out of the way if theyve now gone.
Mojave . see above. I dont know whether I need anything there other than N932ML DC9. Any confirmation if its still there and still visible would be great. It could save me a long drive!!
VCV - Anyone know if N734AG (ex Aeromexico 767) is at VCV and if so where it is located?? I have it has still being here but have also seen some info it has gone to Wilmington. I wasnt planning on a VCV overflight but may have to if this is on the main ramp. Im also trying to locate LVZPJ the Aerolineas A340.
San Bernadino - main reason for visit is to see a missing JAL 777. Can anyone confirm from where these can be seen and if they have markings on them to identify??
Goodyear - Has the ex Air Busan 735, HL7233 met its maker. I was hoping to trap this but seen it missing from recent logs....

Any help I could get would be gratefully appreciated and as I said I will share my sightings with the group when I get back.

On another matter, I was under the impression it may be possible to wangle Ramp Tours at IGM now. I saw the contact Pat Connell, but have had no response to the mails. Anyone else know a name or number or has this brief opportunity since passed??

Kind Regards

Gary
