I found a picture of a commercial jet bone-yard in a cool article I recently read:

Anyone know where this bone-yard is located in fs9?

He's not looking for the Davis-Monthan AFB in Tucson, Arizona - he's looking for the boneyard that is pictured in the link he gave us!


& no - i don't know where it is, i just got fed up reading about Davis-Monthan when thats not what bensmith was asking about.


Sorry for shouting.

The Mojave Airport in California is a storage site for commercial aircraft. Am not sure if that is what you are looking for.

FS9 scenery does not show the storage or the Rutan hangars.

It's gotta be somewhere. The graphics in the picture look like they came from fs8 or fs9. I just recently checked out a list of aircraft bone-yards on the net and visited all of the sites in fs9, but came up empty.

it's a custom made static dc-10 wreck... possibly from some addon (maybe the reviewed one)
