From reading previous threads I know a number of you are Google Earth fans. How many planes have you seen in one place?
Try looking around 32 deg 10 min 23 sec N 110 deg 51 min 18 sec W and you will find a US airforce plane graveyard that blew my mind away!

It is a place called "AMARC" if you want to Google it. Stands for Aerospace Maintenance And Regeneration Centre.
Stumbled across it by accident but somewhat mindblowing

Near Tucson in the USA. If you can't type in the co-ordinates try typing "so many planes" into the google search

ive visited that grave yard. they dont like using the term graveyard as many of the aircraft held there are routinely serviced/lubed in case there called back into service.
youll also find the commercial aircraft holding area just north of tuscon at 32deg 30min N and 111deg 19min west
how many ships can you count at the mothballed shipping yard east of san fran? 38 deg 04 min North and 122deg 05 min West
have fun
