OK-EBG (cn 41602) How this Soviet era bird ended up in North Carolina should be an interesting story, especially with that 'British Aerospace VC-10' script on the nose! Notice the "patchwork" of doors and emergency exits! |

OK-EBG (cn 41602) Detail of the nose. Look closely to the left of the word "British..." See the blob of paint? Now look closer to reveal the plane's true identity hidden beneath: "IL-62" |

N602PR (cn 19779/40) Ex Northwest Airlines, ex N602US. Sitting derelict in the Carolina sun. Notice view of aft galley (what's left of it) through the missing doorway. The registration "N602PR" was put on the plane after coming to Maxton, but is not a valid registration. |

F-BHSP (cn 17923/167) Being scrapped by Mother Nature. Close-up looking the length of the plane. Note the faded "Intercontinental" script, reminding us all there was a time when flights across oceans were something special! Note also the crudely installed doorway from another aircraft. |

N220NW (cn 46577/114) The high flight time DC-10 when she was retired (over 117000 hours), this old bird is DONE! She will continue to lose parts, bit by bit... |
