Davis Monthan Air Force Base AMARC
Where retired combat wings rest
Where retired combat wings rest
During the Christmas holidays of 2000, I drove from California to Tucson, Arizona where I went on a tour of AMARC facility hosted by Pima air museum.
After the end of cold war, the number of aircraft stored here has been reduced, still the facility has 5000 aircraft in various conditions.
The aircraft stored here will eventually go back to service or sold to other countries (if lucky!), sold to museums and private collectors (again, if lucky), provide source of parts, modified into target drone, or if there is no use at all, will be scrapped.
The massive number of aircraft you see is just unbelievable sight.
Davis Monthan AFB AMARC facility is well worth the visit.
#530 is on display.
