rel=\"noopener\">Pima Air and Space Museum<\/a> which is just outside of Davis-Monthan AFB, AZ.&nbsp; It was amazing to see aircraft from the Wright Flyer to the B-1 bomber and everything in between.&nbsp; I toured&nbsp; the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.390th.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">390th Bombardment Group<\/a> Memorial Museum and got to see my favorite plane, a refurbished B-17.&nbsp; I also got a bus tour and got to see most of the aircraft under the care of the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dm.af.mil\/units\/amarc.asp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">309th Aerospace Maintenance and Regeneration Group<\/a> at what most people know as the boneyard.&nbsp; If you served in the military or are an airplane buff, this is one off the prime places in the country to go.&nbsp; I snapped a lot of pictures and here are a few.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"479\"
