Great photos - thanks for posting! I'm also quite impressed by some of the parking configurations to save space.

Wow, thanks for sharing! Wonderful capturing of the symmetry and desolation. I've passed your blog link along to some coworkers.
Have you considered Moses Lake, to see all the 737-MAX Boeing has parked? Not the same reason for the grounding, but now I'm curious what that looks like.

A hearty thanks to FT for posting those images to Twitter without any semblance of photo credit. This’ll be the last time I post here.

Any hints as to where else you may have put these up so people late to the game can see them with appropriate credit?
