Rows of stretch DC-8's, August, 1969

This photograph was also dated August 1969.  However, I simply do not recall where this was taken.  Rows of stretch DC-8's like this might have been at the Long Beach Airport, but there would not have been foothills that close behind--or that much open space to park the planes.  I can only speculate that this is Ontario Airport, and these Douglas aircraft are lined up for final test flights before delivery to the various airlines, mostly United.  I might have taken this photograph from the window of our Air California 737-200 flight after we landed from OC.

Would think that is the United Airlines Maintenance base at SFO
