| Jun 21, 2021 at 20:16 | comment | added | Darrel Hoffman | @llama Looks cool, but I'll bet it costs more to keep it air-conditioned in the tropics. Just like cars or building roofs, you want light colors in hot climates (to reflect more light and thus heat), and dark colors in cold climates (to absorb light and heat). Is it possible this particular plane came from somewhere much colder? | |

| Jun 21, 2021 at 15:47 | comment | added | Jammin4CO | I just want to know the story on that black airplane. I am curious. | |
| Jun 21, 2021 at 10:37 | comment | added | jwenting | given that at least some of the aircraft seem to have their registrations and other identifying features stripped, it could also be the parking of a junk yard/scrapper. | |

| Jun 20, 2021 at 23:40 | comment | added | fraxinus | @TomMcW Almost everything, including airplanes, fits better and probably symmetrically if given both enough planning and a handy order of arrival. It looks like they started at the right corner and did their best every time a plane arrived. | |
| Jun 20, 2021 at 20:30 | comment | added | TomMcW | None of the answers seems to address the fact that they are parked asymmetrically because there are many different types and sizes of aircraft. If you're parking all the same kind of pane they fit better in a symmetrical pattern like this | |
| Jun 20, 2021 at 17:33 | comment | added | Richard | I'm assuming someone cut out a load of plane models and spent an hour or two putting them onto a wee little runway model trying to work out how to fit them all on. | |

English grammar... "aircraft" is already plural, and "it is" requires an apostrophe becoming "it's"
