A Visit to Victorville (VCV/KVCV)

It was a gorgeous day in SoCal today so we decided to take the new APF Staff Vehicle (Dodge Ram 2500 "Mega Cab") for a spin. We headed to Victorville (VCV/KVCV) to check out some of the aircraft stored there but before hitting the airport we stopped at the "Out Post" an authentic truck stop for a hardy breakfast.

FedEx MD-10-10(F) (46615/76) N381FE arrived at (VCV/KVCV) this past Friday 01/22/2010 for storage.
Boeing 717-231 (55081/5045) now stored at VCV, most recently operated with Bangkok Air as HS-PGQ "Sokhothai" as can be seen by the sporty livery. The aircraft was originally delivered to Trans World Airlines (TWA) on 12/28/2000 as N2414E with whom served until March 2002.

Ex-Midwest 717-2BL (55193/5153) N927ME was delivered to the carrier on 03/07/2006 but now waits in Victorville for her departure to her new operator, Mexicana Click.

Ex-SilverJet 767-216(ER) (23624/144) G-SJET (now reg'ed N480JC) sits engineless at Victorville awaiting her next assignment.

Ex-MaxJet 767-238(ER) (23306/125) N250MY has been a guest at Victorville since the carriers demise in December 2007.
