Air Force Graveyard

The Bone Yard near Davis Monthan Air Force Base in Tucson ,  Arizona For  those of you that have never seen this, it is something to see.The precision in the way they are parked is  impressive.
(Of course, the fact that there is more than a couple of bucks sitting here is a bit impressive also!!!)




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. It's  the only unit in the U.S. Air Force that actually  makes a profit.
