Marana-Pinal Airpark, AZ (MZJ) - 2010 CIV

[Rob van R]

On the first of april 2010, no joke i visited Marana, Pinal Air Park with my wife for spotting on the outside of the field. A lot of aircraft can be spotted, but definately not everything. I spotted what was possible, and my wife wrote down everything i dictated. The next day, we rented a Cessna 172 (N80187) with Double Eagle Aviation at Tucson and we flew over Davis Monthan AFB to Marana Pinal Air Park for air to ground photography. First we made a low pass over runway 30 followed by a left turn and a low pass over runway 12, Then we landed on runway 12 and taxied to the end of the runway and taxied back to runway 12 for take off. In take off a gust almost blew us over, but the pilot just managed to get us airborne. We made another low pass before flying back to Tucson. In these 2 flights (43 minutes for KTUS-KMZJ and 23 minutes for KMZJ-KTUS), we made almost 1100 pictures (!!!!!) with two Canon DSLR cameras. After examing the pictures and my logbook i managed to identify almost every aircraft on the ground. Questions left and help preciated for the next airplanes :

1 white DC.10 (22 DC.10's and 1 MD.11 at Marana)
1 former Qantas Boeing 737, although almost completely scrapped
5 Northwest 747's without a registration visible
2 Northwest Cargo 747's without a registration visible
1 Qantas 747 in the scraparea without a registration visible
1 Hellenic Imperial Airways B747 without a registration visible
2 Northwest B757's without Northwest markings
2 Northwest B757's with FULL Northwest markings
2 Northwest DC.9's without Northwest markings
1 G.111 from Chalks, 7 present on the right side from runway 30
1 Northwest DC.10 without Northwest markings
1 China Eastern Md.80

Thanks in advance for the help. Greetings Rob van Ringelesteijn

Hello Rob,

Maybe this site is usefull for you: http://www.ch-aviation.ch/aircraft.php" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Go to aircraft and then push the search button.

[phantom]

According this database DC10 N221NW and N223NW from Northwest stored at Marana among the other DC10's you mentioned. Possible one is already scrapped in the meantime.
Can you send some of the 1100 (!!!) pictures to the photoforum ?
L1011 N3140D from BWIA not there anymore (so scrapped) ?

[phantom]

The missing white DC10 should be OB-1812P from Cielos Airlines.
DC10's N163AA and N164AA from American Airlines not seen anymore ?

[Rob van R]

The missing white DC.10 is something like N342LW. Very hard to see on the pictures
BWIA L1011 is not seen, so must be scrapped by now
I would definately like to send pictures to the photoforum, but don't know how. So please advise me how to do

greetings Rob

[Rob van R]

The white DC.10 could be N352WL according CH aviation, although mentiones to be scrapped already

[Rob van R]

or N303WL..................
