It is true! A remarkably intact early model Bell UH-1 'Huey' coded 'NJ' sits behind an area of what might be ovens or perhaps air conditioning units (?) 1024x683 |
Another goodie, appears to be the forward fuselage section of a Lockheed S-3 Viking plus an engine nacelle. 1024x683 |
At a guess I would say this is an engineering mock-up of the S-3 Viking, it looks too clean to be a former in-service aircraft. 1024x683 |
What appears to be a crate with a coupled pair of older model turbojet engines. No idea what aircraft these are from, I am guessing they might be from a B-47 or even an early model B-52? 1024x768 |
More aircraft junk piled against the fence. The canopy section to the right is incredibly rare, being off a very early General Dynamics F-111 'Aardvark'; I suspect that this is a test escape capsule ie the whole crew compartment module which would detach from the aircraft in an emergency situation. 1024x768 |
The junk in this place was unbelievable, literally thousands of wooden crates filled with heaven knows what. Two aircraft in the background, a giant Sikorski CH-37 Mojave helicopter which used to be in store at Tucson Municipal airport, also a very rare General Dynamics F-111B which was originally developed as a U.S. Navy carrier-borne strike aircraft but was later cancelled. 1024x683 |
And the last image, an EF-111A 'Sparkvark' looms over an array of junk in this scrapyard located out in the high desert. 1276x768 |
An ocean of scrap... 1180x683 |
