And where was this photo taken? Somewhere in this world maybe?

There is another photo of this plane at Henderson Nevada airport. Love the sled. Looks like an F1 car.

The mighty “Pipeliner”!
Flew it for a few thousand hours at Mesaba years ago. Challenging and a lot of fun!

From the background looks like Bullhead city / Laughlin.
Thanks for sharing,
It's SO great to read of ÒBSERVATIONS and comments of more experienced fliers & pilots from various backgrounds & experiences.

This Metroliner has a very nice black and orange paint job that is not noticeable in this picture. Look for pictures of N66GA.
