This is a short video taken during a tour of the PIMA Air Space Museum / AMARC located in Tucson, Arizona. It is an awesome tour if you are interested in airplanes. Make sure you visit the Museum & take the tour when you are in Arizona.

  • how much $ for the tour ?

    Im glad adleast someone has the foresight to save adleast one example of each type of aircraft !

    Think for the future avaiton diehards !

    PLEASE !!!

  • The current cost (as of Feb 2009) is $15.50 to get into the museum and $6 for a one hour tour of of graveyard.

  • 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."

  • @nclaus45 So even if I offered the US Government £1 billion they wouldn't sell me one little tomcat for display in an inactive mode?

  • nice tour...I wish we'd known of this one...we had done the freebie at Davis-Monthan but this is a lot better.,..oh well...btw, my older cuz was a CPO pilot of a C-131 (convair)

    good vid and nice you guys caught the audio as well :)

  • I have been there about ten years ago. Don't remember the admission fee but is not too bad.. It is a very facinateing place and well worth what ever the price...The shame is that most of these planes are flyable but also just wasteing away.

  • aha, so if it suddenly would be a war, they could just get some minor refits and get up in the air?

  • HE said they are all kept in flyable condition, sooo I'm going with yes.

  • Is it in anyway a chance that the plains can be refittet and reinstated in service, like the F-14s and F-16. I see alot of plains that are still in service, can they be sent back to service after been here or are they to stay when they arrive?

  • its because they cost more to maintain, fuel and operate them, then what the military needs, new and better a/c take there place, why a f-18 is there to my best knowledge id say its for show or something with the frame integrity is ef'd up making it not worth replacing

  • oh what they gonna do on those plane just leave it in there??/

  • Old ones

  • I am going here! Do they let you walk around and take photos?
