The first Galaxy to be retired to AMARC arrived in 11.03 and was followed by another dozen over the next couple of years. It was hard work doing justice to such an amazing scene below, using both slide and digital SLRs, but having my son in the back to hold open the Cessna's side window was a help!

This former Eastern and JAL DC-8 crashed on take-off from Miami's runway 27R on 7.8.97 due to unbalanced and shifting cargo; soon after rotation the nose pitched up violently causing a stall. The 1968-built aircraft, bound for Santo Domingo, had been substituted for N30UA which was late inbound but the load sheet was not altered

This former Eastern and JAL DC-8 crashed on take-off from Miami's runway 27R on 7.8.97 due to unbalanced and shifting cargo; soon after rotation the nose pitched up violently causing a stall. The 1968-built aircraft, bound for Santo Domingo, had been substituted for N30UA which was late inbound but the load sheet was not altered

The YC-15 was the McDonnell Douglas entry against the Boeing YC-14 in the Advanced Medium STOL Transport (AMST) competition. This, the first of two, made her maiden flight on 28.8.75 and was later used as a CFM-56 engine test-bed. Registered as N15YC 4.97; moved from Palmdale to Edwards AFB in 4.08 and now displayed near the west gate (Rosamond) in the Century Circle. Although neither design was adopted, McDonnell Douglas later of course went on to develop the successful C-17 Globemaster III
