Here is the story of how it got there.

Worked there for a while in the late '70s. That was my first non farm job. Stated bucking hay @ 10 started working there @ 15.
(back when kids under 18 could get a job)

It must be hard to land like that just to refuel! And how many WWII bombers need refueling these days?
