That is probably where they filmed the "airplane graveyard" scene with Patrick Dempsey and that hot blonde girl in that awesome 80's movie, "Can't Buy Me Love"
I'm gonna go dance the "African Anteater Ritual" now.

That as the first thing I thought of when I saw it too.
Call me corny but that was one of my favourite teen movies from back then! Well that and "Better Off Dead" with John Cusak. "Gee Ricky, I'm sorry your mom blew up". And who can forget the two Asian students who learned English by listening to Howard Cosell :thumb: :thumb:

Could be missiles. One of the reasons that boneyard exists is to allow Russian satellites to verify disarmament agreements.
Alternatively, could be sewer pipes. What do I know?

That's easy to say... but please provide some basis for it being fake.

Astounding how many planes are there. I have been by that Air Force base before but for some reason I'd never passed by the boneyard. Thanks for sharing!
