The
Bone Yard near Davis Monthan
Air Force Base in Tucson ,
Arizona.
Remember
- Each one of these babies
had a multimillion dollar
price tag!
For
those of you that have never
seen this, it is something
to see. The precision in the
way they are parked is impressive.
It's
difficult to comprehend the
size of the 'Bone yard' and
the number of aircraft stored
there. Of course the important
thing to remember is that
they are all capable of being
returned to service if the
need ever arises.
If
you are ever in the Tucson
area, the weekly tours of
the bone yard are still given
through the Tucson Air Museum,
located just south of Davis
Monthan AFB.
Both
the museum and the bone yard
are very popular attractions
in the Arizona desert. It
is difficult to comprehend
the number of military aircraft
in dead storage until you
see these photographs!
Even
if you have seen this before,
look again.
The
3rd largest Air Force in the
world is sitting on the ground
here.
