Boneyard Almanac – Aircraft Histories

The Boneyard – A patch of Arizona desert full of stored and derelict aircraft from the past and present.  To walk among the war-weary aircraft parked here is to take a literal trip into the past.  Fighters sit among cargo aircraft, while bombers are surrounded by trainers.  Regardless of what specific plane is in your view, there’s a story around how it got there and the men and women who flew it.  One of service.  One of sacrifice.  Of times both better and worse for the airmen and the world.

Photographer Del Laughery received unprecedented access over the last 15 years to the current collection itself as well as never-before-seen government archival photographs, and taps into his personal collection of  photos from the 1960s through the 1990s, and uses them as the basis for all four books he has published.

Boneyard Almanac – Aircraft Histories takes you into the original development of now obsolete aircraft as well as the operational history of the specific aircraft pictured.
