Hi again,

Thanks for the info on the last post "Help ID".

I Spend alot of time scanning sat. images, And as everyone knows 17 Miles SE of Tucson is THE mutha of all bone yards. I found a few aircraft in that yard that I could not Identify. 2 of them are in the NE corner behind some trees V shaped and about the size of a F86. The other one that caught my attention is south east of the 2 V shaped aircraft about 300 to 400 yards, Near a bulding south of a few rows of F4's. At first I dismissed it as a tail of a C141/C5 or other larger aircraft but you can see a shawdown under it. Now either its propped up on stands or its a X bird of some sort I know they had a few of these in the 50's as a test but not sure. Any one out there know if this is an aircraft or a butchered tail section.

Also another waste is in the JUNK yard (small area that planes are crushed. North of the center, NE of the bat wing) there lay what is left of a few old AC119's
