adambar Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 Nice shot Martyn! when you drive through Cal and Nevada past all those miles and miles of government properties and all you see is clouds of dust way off in the distance from military vehicles, makes you wonder what's going on in there, not to mention all the warning signs.

Thanks Adam. I wish I had more time to explore in that area, the scenery was amazing. I didn't notice any of this Government land though, maybe I was in the wrong area. I do know that there are warning signs everywhere and getting more every day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stillwater Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 I always like to spot this VFR reference point when virtually flying into YBAS. Good to have it! They won´t harm you with the perfectly camouflaged plane, Martyn. On 1/13/2020 at 1:31 PM, Jack Sawyer said: Cool shot, I've always wondered what goes on in there, similar to Area 51 I reckon.
