the EXACT place you see it now, and hasn't flown since. It's apparently
gone through a number of owners, and for a long time, was owned by a
church group that was planning to use to escape to wherever they were
planning to go come Armageddon time....or some other crazy plan.
Rumor is it's owned now by a company known as Pyramid Oil. I hopped
on the wing of that thing once about 15 years ago, and looked inside.
Everything in the interior looked pristine. "
He also said that the engines stopped leaking oil in the early 80's....that
is the tale tell sign that the engines are now scrap!
