Toured this and Pima twice, it is astounding. A history of aeronautic engineering. You gotta go back to Tucson.

[@vicki3164]

I live right down the street from the bone yard. Love this place so many planes. I have a lot of pictures

[@nicholasriker7784]

I'm from Arizona and live about 45 miles south of Tucson, my grandpa work at that base a mechanic doing this job for 20 years and has a fee great stories about the shenanigans that go on whenever free time arises

[@Iamthelolrus]

If you get back to Tucson, ill buy you a drink.

[@mrpyro333]

Same

[@michaelschemlab]

Couldn’t find any figures on how much an Air Force engineer stationed at 309 AMARG makes, but the salary range of an Air Force engineer in general is approximately $91,586

[@devinjenkins4752]

My cousin Rouhly worked there for 4 years. He started at 101k and ended at 113k but wasnt the most they made there from what he said. Some make close to 150k after the first 4 years so he could have made more but never reenlisted but now makes 200k+ for a private company so not too bad a choice.

[@americansmark]

Had an offer to go do this and wish I'd have taken it. The pay is upper 5 figures to lower 6 figures for the contractors. We have these facilities for ground assets as well, called Defense Supply Centers. They are joint military and civilian facilities.

[@tonyharmon8512]

This also provides an emergency supply in case of armed conflict. It is far faster to refurbish one of these than to build a new one even if the production lines are still working. They may not all be front line units but in time of need they can serve to release other aircraft to do their duty while keeping the supply lines working and safe. That is a big deep reservoir out there.

[@iKvetch558]

You can go on a map application that has satellite imagery available and zoom in on the boneyard, and it is possible to identify the vast majority of the planes there. 😁💯 Also, not sure if they will mention it, but some aircraft at the boneyard are old strategic bombers that have been retired as part of America's arms reduction treaty commitments. You can tell these aircraft by the way they are all cut into pieces in identical ways, and are laid out so that the USSR/Russians can actually see them in their satellite pictures...it is part of the verification process for the treaties. At 12:02 of this video, you can see some of those bombers that were retired under some treaty sitting next to some other B-52 bombers that were retired but kept intact, showing that they were sent to the boneyard voluntarily by the Air Force.

[@robrr2000]

My grandad worked there. He used to bring us there when we visited.

[@Badmuthaphka]

That place is on point

[@BugzysEvilDeeds]

I'm in Arizona. Drive by there on a regular basis. You are right about the sun. Any plastic out there is f'in' trash. Paint starts turning into powder.

[@devinjenkins4752]

The alloys used in military craft post-55 do not sun spot. They use platinum mixture in the metals which negates sun damage and staining. They do coat them to prevent weather damage too so its pretty well covered in that area.

[@TheRagratus]

I flew home from Germany with my wife and 2 small children on a C-5, Rhein-Main to Dover Delaware. MAC Flight- Cost: $46.00 TOTAL ($11.50 each). In flight meal was a "Swanson TV Dinner and a sack lunch (the flight took 12 hrs.), your beverage was Grape Kool-Aid from a 5 Gallon Gatorade jug. There are 75 Aircraft seats, facing backwards btw, in the "spine" right in front of the tail. Stairway to enter was 4 flights long, with o windows, and a tile floor, use the blanket, WEAR THE EAR PLUGS!!

[@richardprophet3110]

During the summer it gets so hot you can cook breakfast by ten on the wing of an aircraft

[@user-ds2lm8uz6s]

Friend, you should watch this to video. It really good you will love it. The Battle of Midway 1942: Told from the Japanese Perspective (1/3) and Iwo Jima Animated - Part 1, D-DAY .

[@elevenbucks5682]

I lived i block from this place, we used to sneak in and look around. That was is in the early 70's. at that time there was an estimated 5500 planes there.

[@thecrapinmytoilet6892]

I’m reposting this comment from your F/A-18 vid. I’m guessing you didn’t see it: Hey luke, there’s one more teen series fighter to check out… the F-14 Tomcat. Even though it’s been retired since I think since 2006, it’s still a worthy and legendary aircraft. Iran still flys the F-14, though they have no access to spare parts. I remember you’d like to check out aircraft from all the generations. One good section of aircraft history you should check out from the US is the “century series” aircraft. (F-100 Super Sabre, F-101 Voodoo, F-102 Delta Dagger, Republic XF-103 [never made it past mock-up stage], F-104 Starfighter, F-105 Thunderchief, F-106 Delta Dart, F-107 “Ultra Sabre” [radically redesigned Super Sabre, was beaten in competition by the F-105], The F-108 Rapier [proposed Mach 3 interceptor, was cancelled because of estimated high costs noted by president Dwight D. Eisenhower]. Ik there are vids on KZbin that go through the entirety of the century series aircraft. Super important aircraft for the history of the U.S. Air Force. Would also really like to see some more Found and Explained soon!

[@devinjenkins4752]

They do do private contracting in the boneyard but majority are military related.

[@AspynW]

The YC-14 kind of went into service. It’s what got McDonnell Douglas the contract for the C-17 many engineering concepts carried over from the 14 just in a larger package. This actually made the redesign take significantly longer than expected and pricier, playing into Boeings acquisition of McDonnell Douglas.

[@comradecrawdaddy3343]

My sister and her husband live in Tuscon. Theyre always trying to get me to move out there. Lol

[@stevechilders2624]

That’s a lot of military equipment that’s available in case of A awar

[@TreeboretheRubyLord]

If their pay is similar to civilians who work at our ship yards, they probably start at about $22/hour, and can then get into specializations where the pay can get to $70/hour, and even higher. Like my youngest is now training for a specialization that will take them to $70/hour, they are currently at $26/hour.

[@paulhodges101]

I bought "door kickers" the other day. I watched you and your pal playing it. You were right though, you said I'd like it, and....👍

[@JIMBEARRI]

NATO countries normally get new aircraft direct from the factories. Third World countries are the normal customers for used aircraft.

[@RarefiedError]

You're Correct about comms gear, ANY of it, my NDA after separation was set at 72 years. (former JRSC 3D1 series)

[@stevechilders2624]

I bet they get used as train jets. It’s a cheaper way to get those type of jets for training purposes.

[@Juicejunkie409]

It’s like a junkyard for cars

[@jimreilly917]

Um…No. They DELIBERATELY didn’t talk about the military security at the Boneyard. No onee cares about what’s under the hood of the 64 Buick in Bubbas junk heep But those F15, F-16 parked wing to wing? A little different. Security is tight at the Boneyard.

[@ryanweintraub9448]

Speaking of destroying aircraft to prevent enemy nations getting parts, the US literally shredded all F-14s not in a museum because the Iranians still fly the ones we gave them before the 1979 revolution. They somehow kept smuggling parts out of the boneyards

[@TheRagratus]

Word has it that Russia decided to do this and is using the Ukraine as their storage facility. 2 years ago they started shipping all their old armor there.

[@DarkKatzy013]

One word for you good sir . Logistics. America's military runs off of logistics.

[@Juicejunkie409]

That’s part, military, and parts civilian

[@user-po3ev7is5w]

aluminum doesn't bleach. It's a metal

[@brianely2000]

Please, no more cheeky peeks. As an American that sound really wrong.

[@TheRagratus]

😂

[@theoriginalburgandy550]

Anyone else catch the war games music in the background? 😂

[@Vdubb]

Where do you think Ukraine is getting thier F-16's from?

[@everypitchcounts4875]

Not the US.

[@scarecrow108productions7]

​​@@everypitchcounts4875yeah. I think Denmark was gonna send em very soon. That is if the training of UKRAF pilots, maintainers, and mechanics finally paid off....on this platform

[@SYBEX21]

I would think a lot of the F16s would be going to Ukrain.

[@darkking7832]

1st as usual

[@amymeighan8878]

You over talk the commander... not watching again
