No idea what you are referring to. I worked a program that had people out there. I had no knowledge or access other than the people that would shrug when asked about things.

I've flown over the edge of it a few times.

On of my instructors was IFR and flew straight through their airspace (I guess sometimes that actually happens,
it's restricted, not prohibited) and he said his transponder light never blinked, it was was just permanently on
until he was well clear.

Negative. I did spend some time in R-4807 testing GPS for USAF Space Command.

eta: A bit of trivia.

Mark Farmer (Agent-X, for those of you familiar with his contributions to Art Bell's Dreamland), freelance journalist, photographer, and Area-51 expert, worked at the LGS in Juneau, Alaska after medical retirement from the USCG.

I know of at least two members here who were base guards back in the day.

My grandfather worked there in the early 60’s.

My little brothers best friend growing up is currently a firefighter at the base.

I asked him once if he ever gets to put out fires on cool test aircraft that crash. He just laughed and tells me to shut up and stop asking.

A waitress at the Little"A'le Inn gave us directions to the area 51 gate a few years ago when we came down the extraterrestrial Highway on the way back from glacier national park.

Its like 20 miles of bumpy and rutted gravel and dirt road. Then right when you are ready to give up it becomes paved and totally smooths out for a few miles right up to the gate. At that point the guards lock on to you. My wife lost her nerve and made me turn around.

The ET Hwy has these cows that just stare at you driving down the road. They are suppose to be alien-bovine hybrids for experimentation. They just look at you like they are screaming for help on the inside. And we saw roadkill that was bizarre and other worldly. Escaped creatures?

And we visited J-Rods mailbox, where secret instructions were left for him.

I first went to Area 51 summer of 1986.  Back then, you could drive all the way up the hill to the guard gate.  The guard and I talked for about a half hour or so; he showed me the new boundaries that the Air Force was getting ready to take over.  Sure enough, USAF shut down Freedom Ridge.  Now they stop you at the foothills off the 11 mile straight as an arrow road.

In 2002 my son and I climbed Tickaboo Peak and sat and watched the base for about an hour or so.  It was mostly like watching paint dry, nothing going on.

When did Area 51 become widely known?

According to my mother and grandmother, they remember my grandfather sometime in the mid 1970s casually saying how he used to work at Groom Lake. He did work for Lockheed in LA in the 50s and 60s, but I don't know if he took any trips out to Vegas. Mom told me that in the late 1990s and I'm like, "Groom Lake is Area 51 and Bob Lazar stuff!" I have no idea on the veracity of it. IDK why Lockheed would need a heliarc welder (TIG nowadays) at Area 51. Then again, I can't see him BSing with my grandmother about something she'd have no idea about.

My grandfather built the runway extension there back in the 80's (Matich Corp). He said any time the Air Force needed to move something they had to shut down operations and corrall the workers into a hanger till it was accomplished.
