This is bugging the heck out of me, I've spent about the last 45 minutes trying to figure out where that is! :)

And to think, I was all excited when I saw there had been another response to this thread, thought I might have my answer finally... but that wasn't exactly what I had in mind. :) LOL... thanks though, John. :D :lol: :lol: :lol:

4-engined thing is an Electra/Orion, looks like a Phantom, a T-6, a Skyraider(?), an S2F, mebbe a couple of L-29s or tweets, and an aircraft carrier painted in the grass.

Don't cry for me Argentinaaaaa...... 8)


I punched the coordinates into Google Earth, and did a litte more googling around. It's the Museo de la Aviación Naval on the grounds of the naval air station at Bahia Blanca, Argentina (Base Aeronaval Comandante Espora.)

I can't find a wbsite, but pics of some of the aircraft are here: [/url]http://www.airliners.net/search/photo.search?front=yes&s=1&keywords=argentina%2Bnavy+museum[url]

<edit> can't seem to get the hotlink to work... :x



There's a half-hour I'll never get back... :lol:

If it's in Argentina, there's probably a T-28 in there.
