Unusual Aircraft spotted

DieselPowered

It would be nice to see if other unusual locations of aircraft are spotted online or through Google maps etc.
This is from an old Cold War airport in Russia showing some old/active Military aircraft (Migs?)

They look like MIG 23 Floggers

dasa29

they are too big to be Mig 23's, could be Tupolev TU-22 backfires

I just spend too much time looking for scrapped/stored Aer Lingus planes

bbk, I might have something you like. I *think* this might be what was EI-ORD? Here?

These are certainly TU-22s. They look like TU-22Ms. Still quite a lot active in Russian service -a recon variant was shot down by the Georgians in 2008.

Great link Mech1, knew it was out there but never looked it up on Google Maps.

Terrific pic, just above and to the right of the 3 metal roofed silos you can see a CH-53 in flight.

Flew into Tuscon in a C172 years back for a visit to Pima Air Museum (fantastic!) some stunning views of the boneyards on the way in... Sadly was before the days (for me!) of digital cameras and I didn't have anything worthwhile for shooting from the air

Didn't have time to do the tour of AMARC though.

If you follow route 10 about 30 miles north-west from the Boneyard, there's the civilian equivalent at Marana Airpark. (not Avra Valley Airport, a bit further along the road) Nowhere near as impressive though.
