Geocache Description:

This is an easy cache, but a great place to visit for aircraft enthusiasts of all ages.

This is one of my favorite spots in the Antelope Valley, but it's not as well known as it should be.

At this location you will find two large aircraft and some other assorted exhibits. To claim credit for this cache, you will need to visit the site and answer the questions below. The site is only open between 11 am and 4 pm on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. There is no admission, but they do accept voluntary donations.

Please email me with the answers to the questions, do not post it here even if encrypted.

1) What is the type designation and the tail number of each large aircraft? (Hint: They are not the same type)

2) What is placed underneath the right engine nacelle of the southwestern-most aircraft?

3) What is the designation of the aircraft nearest the trailer?

4) What picture is on the cover inside the back of each of the engine nacelles?

5) Go inside the gift shop and face east. What round object is on the floor by the wall?

6) There is a covered wooden bench for visitors to the site. Who built it and for what purpose?

I hope you enjoy this area and its history as much as I do
