I will be going to Tucson in the next couple of days. IIRC
there is an airport graveyard/mothball site somewhere nearby
that you can visit? What are the names, locations (if you have
it) and are they worth visiting?

thanks in advance.

Gerald,

You are probably thinking of AMARC (Aircraft Maintenance and Regeneration
Center) at Davis - Monthan AFB.

Tours of AMARC are now administrated by the Pima Air Museum (an under-rated
gem in it's own right...)

You can also tour a Titan missle silo in the town of Green Valley (a bit
south of Tucson):

If you haven't been to the desert befo
- Drink water
- Wear a good hat
- Drink more water
- Be aware of wx forecasts as it's our "monsoon" season
- Drink even more water
