Hi everyone.

I am sure many of you including I myself miss aircraft like UAL's DC-10s as well as B 747-100/200s/SPs etc.

However, they are all in storage.

I really would like to get on board and visit a retired plane. Is it possible for me to do so?

Most likely not unless you have connections with senior people at the airline. Then it isn't impossible. For example, one user here (Purdue Arrow) got to ride a DL L-1011 on its last flight.

I visited Evergreen Air Center in 1995 .. they told me that in the summer to prevent the interior of the aircrafts from heating up that they hire local college students to drive around to these aircraft and open their doors to get the air flowing inside. Sounds nice !!! well for some ? e-mail me !!
