What's more there! I noticed the floaters of a HU-16, many fuselage parts of crashed jets as the F.4, F.5 and Mirage III,jet engines being cut up and in use as barbeque's, helicopters parts and piles of other metal sometimes nothing more than junk, others almost "new". In the clubhouse, hundreds of photo's and more parts. I was with a pilot of the FIO there, and he could identify some of the "junk" as being JU-52, HE-111 and Bouchon. He was looking for T-6 parts. If you can find it, well worth the trip, but notice I was there 4 years ago, don't know how it is now (probably more junk I think). I understood from the owner that the Germas had deliveredone or two real HE-111's to Spain, so that they could learn to built/mantain these machines, and that the nase came from one of these aircraft. have no clue if this is true.
