America’s largest 'boneyard' is where military history comes to rest—thousands of iconic aircraft in one hauntingly beautiful landscape. In Arizona’s arid desert, these giants are preserved, their stories and legacy visible for miles. A powerful reminder of aviation’s past and the journeys these aircraft once undertook.
The workers not wearing respirators while applying the corrosion protection coats hurts to see
Very interesting!
Thank you for your service
America’s largest “boneyard” is where the world’s biggest military planes end their service. Located in the Arizona desert, the dry climate preserves these retired aircraft, creating an eerie yet captivating resting place for aviation’s finest.

Air suspension materials are good recycling. Gas tank, cokes, nozzle, connector, plug in, coil, spring, braket panel, tool, tip, and Tubeless, etc. Glasses bullet protection, woolen woven fabrics, dramamine pins, aluminum can, super gauges,and signal chips are new shifting. Take care of these guys!
Where do you get your information? They dont reuse bolts. They dont have a send off with WWII aircraft when an aircraft goes to the bone yard, dont have a ceremony when an aircraft is retired or sent to storage, maybe when a type of aircraft is retired. You sound uninformed
I was tasked with transporting numerous truck loads of wings from Kelly in San Antonio to Newell Recycling which was several miles away down city streets. City of San Antonio told the Airforce no way/no access. I had a very brief discussion with the SA Police Chief that DOD owned EVERY SQUARE INCH of San Antonio and I would be transferring the loads on a given day. I told him if he had any bad officers that he wanted to get rid of, just send them over to interfere. Not one squad vehicle showed up, move went without a hitch.

Nobody cares
Seems to be like a waste of good acreage maybe for farming. I can’t think that many of their parts are reusable in today’s modern aircraft.
