A cockpit faces an endless desert landscape; a gangway stands in the middle of an abandoned expanse. At the vast aircraft storage grounds in the middle of the desert in the southwestern United States, hundreds of discarded aircraft stand in waiting and contemplate their fate. Normally strictly isolated from the outside world, the storage grounds opened their gates for this project by German photographer Werner Bartsch. In his impressive images we find an ancient specimen of the world's best known transport aircraft Dakota as well as retired airliners like the Boeing Stratocruiser and even President Eisenhower's Air Force One, built in 1948.
