Next to the boneyard is the Pima air and space museum, home to over 300 aircraft including the B-29 bomber, an early Air Force One, and the world’s fastest plane the SR-71.

The air force plane boneyard in Tuscon is the most mindblowing collection of military aircraft in long term storage. There’s about 4,000 planes parked in the dry desert air, some for future re-use and others that are scavanged for spare parts.

We spent a few days in Tuscon, primarily to visit the Pima Air and Space museum and the air force boneyard. But while there we also explored the amazing saguaro national park, some of the most iconic cactus-filled desert scenery you can find.
