Description: Boneyard Badges - Aircraft and Emblems at Davis-Monthan AFB (Airlife) The Davis-Monthan Air Force Base lies in the Arizona desert near Tuscon. To aviation enthusiasts it is one of the most interesting and fascinating places to Earth, for here, bathed in the dry heat of the desert sun are to be found 4,687 aircraft. It is a retirement home for supersonic fighters, for tank-busters and almost every type of aeroplane that has served in the world's most powerful air force. In this book, we take a look at some of the outstanding sights of once-proud aircraft that lie in varying states of repair. Some are pristine and ready for recall to action and some are slowly being dismembered for spares and scrap. Amongst all this are gems of customised artwork, painted by the crews who flew them in many different combat zones from the jungles of Vietnam to the desert of Iraq. Photographer Philip Chinnery set out to capture these images, before they vanish forever. Author : Philip D.
