We all see airplanes sitting in the corner of of our local airport. They sit for years...for the most part their stories are unknown. One day someone shows up with a tool box and a bunch of parts and fly's them away. Other times they just disappear.
My local Muni had a whole row of these forlorn airplanes... One day I drove by and all but one were gone... I know two moved to other parts of the field. One is in a hanger.
This 310 has been around for a long time...10 -15 years...I can't remember.
Last year I took this picture of it.
Earlier this week I drove by and saw this...She's headed to the salvage yard. I was told that the owner passed away several years ago and the airplane just sat there and became a birds nest.
Sad...I feel a bit of remorse because I couldn't do anything.
Rumour has it that the owner still pays the tie-down fee (must be true; that's the only reason I can think of that would keep it from having been scrapped decades ago). I looked up the N-number, and the owner was listed as being in Denton, just up the road from here. Ya gotta wonder. . . 
... It'd be nice for the gas and cash to go towards my own plane rather than renting. Some of the one's I've seen won't be worth what it'd take to restore them if they're left there much longer.
