The slow creak of a old bomber as it gently sways in the desert wind...

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 2, 2007

Verified Purchase

Of the 112 pages in this book, only 4 do not contain photographs. Every one of the photos is on full color. There's a picture of a C-124C Globemaster, taken in 1972, that looks as if I took it with my digital camera yesterday (2008). The photo's are that nice. This books covers the early years of Davis Monthan Air Force Base in Arizona from WWII until today. Don't look for a lot of photos of WWII warbirds in this one, though. DMAFB mostly housed B-29's after the war, all the other warbirds and bombers were mostly stored at Altus, OK; Kingman, AZ; and Ontario, CA. Whats fascinating about this book is the Cold War era bombers and fighters. Also some of the photos of the preserved Century Series fighters are stunning. There's a ground eye view of F-4's...nose to tails...as far as the eye can see. Some of the aircraft look as if they still have more missions in them...more adventures and glory to capture, while others are broken up into barely recognizable pieces or have weed's growing through their useless hulks. You'll find yourself spending hours looking over the photos and reading the beautiful descriptions, then return to the cover and start reading the actual history of the field. Overall, a great buy for any aviation enthusiast.

Boneyards

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 5, 2011

Verified Purchase

I just love the Boneyards. Apart from the fact that most of the aircraft that are placed there will be turned into scrap eventually, it's important to me that what does enter is recorded. I am not a local to the US so I don't get there personally enough for my liking but I love what others have recorded for me. Therefore, it's no surprise that I have given this a 5 star rating.

I'm a big fan of boneyards books, this is a good one, not the best, Some great pics and good background info, Veronico's AMARG scrapbook is superior in the pics dept, I'd suggest getting both, as I did.

GREAT BOOK ON THE BONEYARD

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 1, 2003

Verified Purchase

Having lived around the boneyard for a number of years this book helped me remember some of it. My father would and still passes by alot of the airplanes today on his way to work or what ever. It was interesting to read it from an Englishman's point of view.

Excellent but sad pictures of retired aircraft

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 2, 1998

This book is a valuable resource for aircraft modelers and aviation enthusiasts. It contains many excellent pictures of aircraft, often in service paint schemes, preserved at Davis-Montham AFB in Tucson, AZ. Each plane is a moment of history frozen in time, poised at the end of a valuable service career but not yet broken up for scrap. Many of the pictures make you sad to think of once-proud aircraft, now cast off unwanted. Although this book does not puport to be anything but a documentation of the career of the Boneyard at Davis-Montham, I would have appreciated more detail on the aircraft themselves. However, I highly recommend this book for modelers as it provides color pictures of many aircraft not often seen in other publications.
