This is a very dated report as I was on the island 10 years ago After diving Australia my dive buddies flew home and I went on my own to Saipan for three days of exploring. Took an additional day trip over to Tinian via a small aircraft puddle jumper. I landed at the small airstrip that use to be the Japanese fighter base. Rented a car and drove all around the island looking for any WW II history. My father in law was an Engineer on a B 29 flying out of India / China and then out of Saipan and finally out of Tinian, so I wanted to bring back video for him. As I dove my rental car down one of the remaining B-29 runways I made a video for my father in law simulating what it may have looked like taking off back in 1945. I work at a Nuclear Power Plant in Wisconsin so I was very interested in viewing the two bomb pits. At the time of my visit there was no glass covering over the pits and I was able to drop down into one of the pits to view how the hydraulic lift mechanism was use to lift the bomb(s) up into the B-29 bomb bay. The second pit had been filled with dirt and there was a tree growing out of it (all now cleaned up and a second glass enclosure over it). Right near the bomb pits is the old WWII Japanese flight control building = very interesting. One of the B-29 American runways is in a remarkable status of preservation and is still used by some military groups for training. The second runway was filled with a holding area buildings for Chinese refugees that had fled China. The third runway was TOTALLY overgrown!

What I love most about Rota is that you can drive yourself around the island or hire a local to ride around with you. None of the historic sites charge an entry fee and all of the sites are well maintained.
