Those planes are on static display, I don't think they run. They probably were tied down with more permenant tie downs, still not stonge enough though. I drive by there all the time, one of these days, I'll have to stop by and check it out.
My alma mater got hit with an F2 tornado when I was home for Christmas. They lost 50 of 65 aircraft. They were interviewing some school official on the news and he said, "We usually move the aircraft when we have notice, but when your notice is 15min, what can you do?" Look at these damage pics.
