A visit to Davis Monthan AFB - The Boneyard

My neighbor and I returned to the Pima Air Museum to take the tour of the 309th AMARG otherwise known as "The Bone yard" at Davis Monthan AFB in Tucson. The tour took a little over an hour and covered about a third of the place. There are approx. 42oo aircraft stored there and about half are in either flying condition or can be made that way quickly.

One of several one of a kind prototypes

This is a highly modified KC135 Tanker used in an electronic warefare role

An A-10 Thunderbolt

This Admiral's plane kind of looks like a presidential aircraft but isn't

One of many F-4 Phantom jets awaiting conversion to target drones

Lots of KC-135 stratotankers awaiting disposition. My son flew in these and wanted me to photo tail numbers.
