Then it was off to Opa Locka, a few miles North of Miami-International. As it was Sunday, it was not busy with people at the airport, so I was not bothered when driving around and stopping at the fences for some photos.
1. Opa Locka has a small storage area when entering the airport. The first plane captured there is this World Atlantic Airlines MD-83 N809TR, which wears the basic livery, but no titles yet.

2. This MD-83 N861ZX is a former Allegiant Air aircraft:

3. There have been two An-12s at Opa Locka for years. One of them, this UK-12005 of SRX has recently been painted all white and has no outer markings anymore:
