Not Ordinary Kid’s Toys
Welcome to Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, where miniature planes are not just child’s play. This installation in Tucson, Arizona, has been soaring high since 1925, flexing its muscles in pivotal conflicts like WWII and the Cold War. The base boasts impressive aircraft, such as the legendary A-10 Thunderbolt II and the Lockheed EC-130H Compass Call vehicle.
But the real jewel in the crown is the boneyard, the world’s largest aircraft repository, mostly for preservation and storage. It’s a true haven for aviation aficionados and history buffs alike—a playground of sorts for those who admire the wondrous jets and their storied past.
