I visited Knossos several time in 1992-3 while shutting down Iraklion AS, Crete. Beautiful island—big, too. Khania is stunningly beautiful. Moved a lot of stuff out through Suda Bay Naval Air Station.
Still, we had a 25 Meter dish we needed to recover. We had it dismantled and trucked to Suda... Only thing to fly it out was a C-5. Due to Bosnia heating up we couldn’t get one scheduled. So, we left it by the end of the runway at Suda.
Years later I’m looking at Suda Bay on Google Earth—my dish pieces were still there!!!
I just checked again and they’re finally gone. I wonder when?
And who.
