One significant consideration in 'parking' the 380 in Victorville was that the aircraft could be brought back to service at the relatively nearby Qantas operated maintenance centre between the runways at the western end of LAX.

This of course brought significant criticism because they didn't use the Australian facility at Alice Springs despite being given billions in government money.
