What an interesting place, and it looks like it would gve you plenty of photo opportunities. It is a little bit sad though for these machines to just sit there and rot away.

Thanks for taking us to the graveyard. I especially like the fourth, I'll assume that it is sunset time, which seems appropriate for the subject.

Nice examples of photojournalism in #1 and #3. 3 is my favorite, it tells me a funny story about hanging out in abandoned airplanes.

Great shots, like the angle taken on the prop in your gallery index.

Whats up with the toys (bear and truck) and the lawn chair inside the cabins of the aircraft?
