D-M 'boneyard' image goes global
A Tucson graveyard for retired warplanes is in the global limelight after a satellite photo released by Google Earth spread like wildfire around the world.
The image taken from space, showing hundreds of old military jets resting on the desert floor at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, has been plastered all over the information superhighway in recent weeks, turning up on scores of blogs and Web sites, and in dozens of newspapers and magazines.
The pic of the boneyard is really neat. Later tonight I’m going for a ride in an A-10.
I took the A-10 flight....I won’t be going on a jet anytime soon. My “ride” was really smooth, but watching the pilots head....hmmm. d:o)
