Summary

[edit]
Description

Massive traffic jams on the I-15 during my return from Las Vegas to Los Angeles led me to take a detour in the Victorville area; this put me right in the area of Southern California Logistics Airport, formerly George Air Force Base.

The Southern California Logistics Airport (airport code is VCV under IATA, and KVCV under ICAO) is one of several that are used as a "boneyard" for old aircraft that are being stored or dismantled.

As it turns out, cockpits from dismantled airliners are making a nice backdrop for my car. The one right behind my car appears to be an Airbus that used to fly for Air India.
