Don't know if those are Nellis overflow(s) or what.... Neat T-44's...........Love Navy training paint schemes
Recall seeing transit traffic piling up on the weekends (starting Fridays) and them having to park on the inner runway (left)which also served as a taxiway....
In the 60's they didn't use this runway for take offs and landings....Not sure why unless it was an "early" noise abatement effort...Afterburners were not as refined as todays and made a loud boom when ignited...
