    This reminds me of the beginning of lend lease. Where the us and Canada built a few air strips in the middle of nowhere that just happened to straddle the border.

    1. American factory pilot would fly brand new fighter plane and land carefully on the neutral American side of the runway and drive away.
    2. Somehow, the now abandoned salvage property would get towed to the other side
    3. British pilot in Dominion of Canada gets in and flies to United Kingdom.

      Oops, I’m so clumsy, I left my plane next to your border!

      I sure hope no one will take it!! Haha

      Came here for this. Need to find an island air strip where we store all the factory reject F35s to host some lost Ukrainian fishermen…
