planewood Posted April 2, 2006 Share Posted April 2, 2006 Do we have any planes that have a 20' wing span? 37.212921° -115.815186° Quote Link to comment

Alphawolf Posted April 2, 2006 Share Posted April 2, 2006 O.K...Thanks! Now I can find it! Quote Link to comment
Alphawolf Posted April 2, 2006 Share Posted April 2, 2006 Which planes are you referring to? I only see some passenger jets and some turboprops... Quote Link to comment
planewood Posted April 2, 2006 Author Share Posted April 2, 2006 (edited) Which planes are you referring to? I only see some passenger jets and some turboprops... Look exactly at the coordinates I gave. See the underground bunkers? What are they for? Sure not very wide. I notice there is a wide perimeter around that complex of 5 bunkers. Probably a fence there too but we just can't see it. Also look off to the west at Yucca Flats where all the atomic underground testing was done.

+JohnTee Posted April 2, 2006 Share Posted April 2, 2006 Do we have any planes that have a 20' wing span? 37.212921° -115.815186° Sure, the military flies, and probably tests, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV's) all the time. Some of them are even smaller. Check out Science Fiction News for more information. There's some cool stuff out there! JohnTee Quote Link to comment
+penguin44 Posted April 3, 2006 Share Posted April 3, 2006 I believe it is an ammo dump site. Quote Link to comment
vagabond Posted April 3, 2006 Share Posted April 3, 2006 (edited) I think your coords are showing an auxiliary field. If you look at these coords N36.80000 W115.940069 I think you'll find the main part of area 51, also check the difference in clarity between your coords and the ones I posted. Your bunkers could be ammo bunkers. I don't think the feds are going to give us an aerial view of area 51, when they won't let you get within miles of it on the ground.

Area 51 has a landing strip big enough for commercial jets. One flys out every day from Vegas with workers. They could be ammunition bunkers. Have to keep ammunition for those two fighter jets somewhere. Quote Link to comment
vagabond Posted April 3, 2006 Share Posted April 3, 2006 They fly more then commercial jets in and out of there. It;s probably the largest aircraft testing area in the world and the areas where they are will not be very clear with Google. And they know when foreign sats are going to be overhead, so nothing is going to be parked in the open when they do fly over. Quote Link to comment
