Texas Lizard Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 Last night we lost one the Blimp hangers due to fire....There is now only one left....Unknown as what started it...When it was a base there, wife I would do our shopping there for food....Close over the hill from where we live...It was a land mark that will be missed...

Phantom Falcon, SASS # 46139 Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 Yes, the blimp hangars were at Tustin; Marines used it for their helo base, MCAS Tustin. PF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
