Yes, I remember seeing it near the ammunition bunkers and I recall finding several car parts around the area.

I was just passing through and decided to visit the museum in town. When I left to go search for petroglyphs towards the town of Alamo I had no idea that my route would take me near the airfield. When I saw the hanger from the highway I could not resist a detour. I am glad I stopped - this is one of my favorite videos.

My hometown. Passed by here at least every few weeks until I was 16 without a thought. Fun to see this. Will have to stop by when I head to the class reunion in May.

Tonopah was a gem and fascinating. It is one of my favorite videos.

I am sure that most people today driving by to those buildings couldn't tell you what purpose that area once served.
