Hello All! First Contribution!

My family used to live in a small northern Ontario town called Sioux Lookout for work. I was visiting them and was tipped off by a friend that the local airport has a "plane graveyard" of destroyed aircraft that is cool to check out. Very easy to find and access.

You can totally walk right up to and inside of the aircraft. Pretty cool

Welcome to UER! this is a nice little spot, abandoned airplanes are not something we see here too often, nice to have some diversion!

Great stuff! Welcome to the site.

Edit: just checked and it’s an 18 hour drive to the town. Maybe not a weekend trip like I had hoped!

Very cool find - as others have mentioned, not something we see very often. Thanks for sharing!

Very cool, I'm driving near here later this week but the 50 minute, each way, detour along the already long drive between Thunder Bay and Winnipeg means I will have to pass on this one.




Here's a lockpick. It might be handy if you, the master of unlocking, take it with you.

It's about an 18 hour drive from me as well, but looks like a great place to check out if near it in the future. Thanks for sharing these Metroid and welcome to the site.
