One of my favourite types of fighter aircraft the F4 Phantom is preserved outside the terminal at Mount Pleasant. It was sent from the UK to provide the air cover for the islands, when it was replaced by the Tornado there seemed no reason for it to be flown back to the UK to be scrapped so they "stuffed it" and it is now the gate guard.
We layover for 18 hours in the MPC (Mount Pleasant complex), this is often referred to as the Death Star, it is a fascinating place. The accommodation and facilities are all connected by one of the world’s longest corridors which is half a mile long.
There is some great art work on the walls; you have the feeling of walking around an exclusive art gallery. In the accommodation blocks the walls are covered in graffiti, what I really like is the creativity of it all.
There are lots of notices on the walls !!
