Gotcha! Not quite. PEMCO took over the old USAirways heavy MX hanger at TPA on the east side of the airport along 36R/18L and yesterday when I cleared security and headded to the terminal area I litteraly dropped my breifcase when I saw TWO United 747-400's at the PEMCO ramp. One was nosed into the hanger and the other was straddling the grass. 747's or widebody jets other than Delta 767's are very rare at TPA. The last time I saw a 747 at TPA was a few years ago when NWA flew a 747-200 in on a charter flight. Somthing to look out for I guess at TPA for my fellow locals. I am sure there will be many other "exotic" types and carriers at TPA in the near future.
