Popis:

A visit to Davis-Monthan AFB in Tucson, Arizona is a must for all aircraft enthusiasts as this is the home of AMARC (Aircraft Maintenance And Regeneration Center). The aircraft re-cycling division of the USA forces. The great aircraft boneyard in the Arizona desert holds around 4400 airframes with a book value of $23.6BN . Large numbers of KC-135, Lockheed Orion, C-130 Hercules and F-16 Fighting Falcons are currently stored here (2020); but there are plenty of more interesting aircraft too. In some cases, like the Delta Dart and Canberra, just one example is in store. The Short Brothers C-23A Sherpa was a military development of the successful SD3-30 short-haul turboprop airliner, built in Belfast. The US army found it ideal for troop transport and light communications duties. Many have found homes in the secondary market, as the civil "N-" registrations on some of these stored examples testify to.
