OBB 19 The Lost Airfields of the Americans in the North Pacific

Meget intressant. Makes sense, men har aldri tenkt over at dette kunne være tilfelle før.


Quote:
Scores of abandoned airfields and other military establishments sit atop small atolls littering the North Pacific Ocean. These edifices were built by the Americans and while they were short-lived and with most of the infrastructures gone, the runways and dispersals left behind are silent witnesses to their great and vital contributions in history especially at war.

Tusen takk for at du deler, her er det baade minner og interessante plasser. Har selv hatt "gleden" av aa mellomlande paa den foerste plassen i artikklen, Johnston Atoll mellom Hawaii og Micronesia, dette var i 1984 og da var det full aktivitet paa Johnston Atoll ennaa - mener det var en Base Dypt og "hemmelig" involvert Reagans Star Wars.

Den Air Mike (Air Micronesia 727-100) jeg ankom Johnston Atoll med ble umiddelbart omringet av US Militaere - ingen store Foto eller Sightseeing muligheter de 50 minuttene vi befant oss paa oeya.

Jeg tror at flyplassen ennaa er aapen - den er vel endel av noedlandings plassene - Qantas har noedlandet der med en 747 !

Et av Luftforsvarets tidligere Lockheed Lodestar transportfly har endt sine dager på Palmyra. RNoAF T-AD ble senere N163R og havarerte på Cooper Island 5/1-80. Alle ombord overlevde, men flyet ble avskrevet.
