Wow. I think they said on "Life after people" that the ones with the White coatings on them are Mummified & could be put back into service if needed for awhile, but I'm not sure.
mate ill tell you what its depressing to see all the c130 herculieses and the orions sitting their new zealand has like forur or five of each and they are the only aircraft we have as pack horses other htan iricous helecoptors send us some dreams are free huh
when the airforce and various militaries are done with the aircraft... they're run down, broken, rotting, and old. would you want to buy one? didn't think so.
At 0:50 is a Canberra. While browsing the base on Google Maps, I saw a couple of D-21 drones parked near long and short wing Canberras. Didn't happen to spot them, did you? Lol!
Go to the Pima Air & Space Museum website and look for the Aircraft Collection Index. They have 2 Martin Canberras listed and 1 Lockheed D-21 drone. If you click on their names, you can see photos of each.
No. This is the explanation as posted on the Davis-Monthan Air Force Base webpage. "Unfortunately AMARG cannot sell or donate aircraft for two reasons: government rules on sales and donation of government property do not permit such direct sales, and AMARG does not actually "own" the aircraft and aerospace vehicles stored at the Center. Ownership remains with the delivering military service or government agency, with AMARG functioning as a property manager."
ok thats a bummer, luckely the russians usually dont make a big deal out of it, as soon as i waive a 5-er infront of their noses;-) thanks for taking the effort!
The Pima Museum had 2 F-14's when I was there. The graveyard across the street had several more. See the video "Aircraft Graveyard - Tour (part 1)" if you are interested in listening to part of the narrative given during graveyard tour.
