4,000 acre Kingman Muni (which smelted ~6000 WW2 fighters and bombers into 57 million pounds of aluminum ingots in 18 months after WW2) has stored some Delta already and immediately could handle 100 more@$250/month fee. Roswell, NM has room. The D-M boneyard is 100%military and cannot expand beyond because development surrounds it. Pinal Airpark Up I-10 al 1500acres is dismantling some Delta 767 and holds their 747 fleet
I was with 355TFW@D-M when they got the first active duty A10 and pilots hated being assigned to it: mocking it as slow and ugly when they’d trained for supersonic dog fights with Russians. Now they compete for a seat as it is the best at killing bad guys in 2020…and getting them back home (sometimes on manual reversion).
Ironically some Arab Wars Wounded Warthogs returned home to Tucson and AMARG to be dismantled for parts, arriving on “stretchers” within C-5s. The fleet keeps shrinking because politicos let Fairchild bulldoze their Long Island factory for big real estate bucks [to become a Chuck E. Cheese strip mall] just as the craven politicians within SUNY a few years later secretly tried to close and dismantle their nearby FRG collegiate flightline and sell off buildings, planes, and parts to the private sector after 9/11, then retaliated against those who exposed and stopped them.
PS Specifically 615 WW2 fighters, 54 light bombers, 266 medium bombers and 4,463 heavy bombers were sliced and smelted just at Kingman within 18 months producing 57 million pounds of postwar pots and pans.
PPS I deliberately bought a home on Irvington Road with a south facing picture window looking out at MASDC/AMARG. Visitors asked “how can you stand to look at a junkyard?” It was an open air aviation museum to me…with constantly changing exhibits.
