I doubt if it changes much from month to month here. Nowhere near as cool as a proper boneyard,but still worth a visit I reckon.

The GE 747 made it worth the stop.

If it's the same one they've been using since about the 1980s I think it was,I didn't think it was still airworthy?

They bought a former Japan Airlines 747-400 in 2011. You can tell by the upper deck. The -100 has the short deck.

Didn't they have a grand piano in the upper deck of some 747?

You're welcome as always! Still to come when I get home is the Travis AFB heritage museum and the LA Sciencentre.

Not all of them. Many of the -400 freighters don't. This one started with them, and had them removed.
