Workers at the top secret Groom Lake (Area 51) and Tonopah Test Range (TTR) air bases commute to work aboard 737 jets from a not-so-remote terminal at McCarran Airport in Las Vegas. It is only two blocks from the Las Vegas Strip! On aviation frequencies, the jets are known by the company name "Janet," a name whose meaning is unknown [See glossary]. Each jet is a 737-200 (or CT-43, the military equivalent) with a single red stripe along the side and no company name or insignia. Smaller Beechcraft Kingair prop-driven planes make special trips to Edwards AFB and other destinations.

...So bring your security clearance and your visa card, because Janet will take you to Dreamland but they won't take American Express!

News and Sightings

6/30/96: T-Tails spotted in Augusta, GA. A reader [RO] writes:

Your birds seen at Augusta,GA. approx. six times in past six months. N654BA with some kind of mechanical problems and diverted to Bush Field, Augusta,GA. N20RA landed in support. Rude pilots! Savannah River Project is just north of Augusta. It is a nuclear weapons and fuel processing facility of the DOE and run by Bechtel!

`lt's just a national scandal that they would be flying a high U.S. delegation around in a war zone without the basic tools to determine the cause of an accident.

James Burnett Former NTSB chairman

WASHINGTON - In response to the plane crash that killed Commerce Secretary Ron Brown, Defense Secretary William Perry ordered the military services Friday to install new navigation aids on all their passenger planes.
