Pima Air and Space Museum and the ‘boneyard’ in Tucson AZ
Posted By RichC on October 20, 2010
I got sidetracked yesterday while talking on the phone to a fellow aviation enthusiast as he shared with me his impressions of the Pima Air and Space Museum. He knew that the National Museum of the Air Force was in my backyard and remembering me talk about the Martin B-26 Marauder on display that had choked up my father-in-law a few years ago (the B-26 kept him safe for 40+ missions in WWII). He mentioned that there was an exhibit at Pima and wondered if I ever traveled out that way (I have not been there).
He also thought the 309th Aerospace Maintenance and Regeneration Group (AMARG) “The Boneyard” for storage of aircraft area close to Pima was impressive and suggested I check it out on Google Earth … I did and thought it was worth including a few photos – click for larger below.
EDIT 10/22/2010: Thanks for emailing the photo (below) Gary!
Remember – Each one of these babies had a multi-million dollar price tag!
