The Desert Boneyard

Posted by Anonymous on Tuesday, July 15, 2003 8:34 PM

Looking for ES-3 information I stumbled across this website. So far it looks great. I'm an aircraft mechanic at the Aerospace Maintenance and Regeneration Center (AMARC) in Tucson. I'm surrounded by 4600 planes and helicopters. I noticed subtle differences with the posted pic of an ES-3 and the real one, which I just happened to be working on. If anyone needs help in researching for some extra realism feel free to ask. I may just get back into modelling myself .

Welcome. If you stick around this site long enough, you will get back into modeling. I visited the bone yard several times and have loads of pictures of some of the aircraft. I was also TDY to DM several times. Hope you enjoy this site.

Welcome to FSM Boneyard. Berny's right .... soon you'll be happily modelling away. Thank you for the generous offer of being a researcher.

Happy Modelling and God Bless Robert

Have fun, Like they said, stick around long enough and we'll eat up your extra time with models. Its sort of like plastic crack. Now has anyone talked to you about armor........

Enjoy,
Mike
