Plane on a Stick

There is a corporate jet at the entryway to Dodson Industries and at least three prop planes across the road. I spoke to the manager of the facility. Do not call it a scrap yard; it is an aircraft recycling facility (He said that with a smile on his face). There are over six thousand fuselages on the property. You are not allowed to walk among them due to insurance concerns. However, you can see plenty.

The jet on a stick and the twin prop planes are just the tip of the iceberg of what formerly flying goodies are south of Rantoul. Check out this satellite view of the adjacent company's aircraft salvage yard.
