Aero Trader Airplane Boneyard, Ocotillo Wells, California
View Original Description
This is probably one of the largest WW-II aircraft boneyards in the world. Radial engines, conformal fuel and oil tanks, and B-29 and B-17 aircraft fuselages.
Aero Trader is known for their inventory of North American B-25 Mitchells. A broken-down B-25 bomber, purchased on a whim twenty five years ago, has transformed the efforts of two men into a thriving company known the world over for award-winning, high-quality aircraft restorations.
Carl Scholl and Tony Ritzman operate Aero Trader from their facility in Chino, California. The name Aero Trader has become synonymous with B-25 restorations, largely due to the company's capability to draw from its unmatched Mitchell parts inventory and its ability to manufacture, to original specifications, any B-25 part that is not otherwise available. A general survey of the B-25's flying in the United States today could hardly find one that hasn't enjoyed the touch of Scholl and Ritzman, or at least some parts from their Aero Trader cache.
