B-1B, serial 84-0050, as she was seen during 2009. The horizontal stabilizers have been removed from this aircraft to support the flying fleet.

2007 photo of A-10A, serial 79-0101, with parts from her in the foreground and F-14s in the immediate background.

From this angle it's easy to see the parts this Intruder, BuNo 157019, had given up by the time this photo was taken in early 2014.

A-10A, serial 77-0226, after heavy reclamation as seen during April 2006. She would survive another ten years before being scrapped.

B-52G, serial 58-0244, looking very much worse for her time in storage. She is cut up to fulfill the U.S. side of the START Treaties.

A portion of B-52G, serial 58-0163, being hauled away. The photo is dated April 2016, nearly 4.5 years before records show the aircraft being scrapped. It's possible this portion of the aircraft found a new home at a museum, but I cannot find any indications that is so.

77th Bomb Squadron "War Eagles" B-1B, serial 85-0070, in storage during April 2013 as viewed from between two F/A-18s. She arrived during the latter part of 2002 and remains in storage, minus a few of her parts, as of the date of this post.

2014 close-up shot of the tail of A-6E, BuNo 155703, highlighting what the Arizona sun does to painted-on markings over long periods of time - in this case, 21 years.

A-10A, serial 77-0226, as she appeared during April, 2006. She would be scrapped nearly ten years later in January, 2016. Behind her are A-10A, serial 75-0277 (tail code DM), and A-10A, serial 77-0195 (tail code EL).
