I was there just 2 weeks ago! Its on the road to a little settlement called Nelson.The road is located off of the highway heading to Searchlight Nev. from Boulder.I took some pics of the T-28's .I counted approx.25-30 airframes in the yard.There are also 4 semi trailers parked with I'm guessing other parts.They are all in orange and white Navy markings. As for the bastardized Mohawk,inside the old hotel/store/gas station across the street they have a little museum.They have photos of the airframe mounted on a pole and then being blown to bits for a hollywood movie.It was a Kevin Costner flick and I think it was called "3000 miles to Graceland" or something similar.I.ve never seen it.Wanna see the T-28 pics?

3000 miles to Graceland;
Kevin Costner, Kurt Russell are the main stars in it. It was about robbing a casino in Vegas. They also used an old closed down hotel and gas Station south of Vegas on the I-15 about 20 miles out of town. O.K. movie, you hate the part were they blow up the Mohawk; it was on the Roof of a gas station that Costner blows up.
