You got to ride on Janet Airlines? ( red strip 737's ) Janet is the
call sign and some people say it stands for Just Another Non-Existant
Terminal...

When I was there, they had a daily "shuttle" that flew a couple dozen
employees between there are Las Vegas. The gig I was on got me there on
a weekly shuttle between Livermore CA and the private airport on site.
Because I finished my part of the gig 4 days early, I was looking at no
way to get back to the Bay Area for (maybe) 4 days until the weekly
shuttle came around again.
There were zero commercial flights out of Tonopah, and their little
airport, so I asked the proprietor at the motel if I could rent a car at
the Tonopah airport. She replied that yes, I could rent a car at the
airport. I said "Great! I want to rent a one-way to the Bay Area." She
answered back, "Oh Joe (don't remember the real name) wouldn't let you
do that with his car." Whoops.
In the end, one of the seats on the daily shuttle became "available",
and I got out of there and to Las Vegas where I hopped a flight from
there to SFO.

Tonapah is also famous in weather circles for the "Tonapah Low"...
Which is a lot like how you feel when you stay there...

The nearby town where I stayed (it was a 3-day gig) is called
Tonopah, which I was told was an Indian word meaning "little wood,
little water". That was an understatement.

I have flown around it a few times. Tikaboo Peak is nearby and I
think on the edge of the restricted area.
I used to serve a town in Utah named Ticaboo.

I don't know how much I can talk about it; needed a clearance (and
escort) to be there.

Not so sure about that. I was at a place that felt like Nowhere
back in 1978 (or79?). It sure looked and felt like Nowhere.
