AMARG is the USAF’s Boneyard at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, in Tucson, Arizona. If you’re an aviation fan, it’s not the place you want to see your favorite aircraft in. Usually, aircraft fly in and get trucked out. It’s the scrap yard for the military.
Tours are run daily from PIMA Air and Space Museum, which is just down the road. They are bus tours, no walking around the air force base.
