Pinal Airpark Airplane Graveyard Tour | 732, A340, 747, A330 | April 2023
Little history on Pinal Airpark: The airfirld was originally built in 1942 to train soldiers for the ongoing war, WWII. Between '42 and '45, over 10,000 soldiers were trained here including over 2,000 Chinese soldiers. Many barracks, still seen today, held these soldiers. After the war was over, the airfield went dormant for a few decades until, similar to Victorville (
• Victorville Airpl... ) and Mojave (
• Mojave Airplane G... ), the world needed somewhere to store unneeded aircraft who had been retired. Northwest Airlines was the first airline to store some aircraft here before the TWA 747-100 landed here for the last time in October of 1996. Since then, thousands of aircraft have landed here...some leave after long term storage like the the Dream Lifter we saw, whereas some never leave similar to the ANA 742s, NWA 742Fs, the TWA 741, and, many more due to the pandemic, such as the SAS A343 and many others. Hope you all enjoy this exclusive tour!

Apologies for the last 2 songs on the video. I understand that they do not match the somber mood of the airplane graveyard, but the original songs we had on the video were copyrighted and youtube replaced them with these songs...but will not allow us to change it. If necessary, please watch muted and enjoy the views!

@@rnsone8827 I'm a retired Boeing modification mechanic. I worked both civilian and military mod. P4-FSH will probably never fly again. It's value is in parts. The SP parked next to it could easily fly again, N7477S, to the right customer. It is currently for sale. It might be smart to buy both planes, keeping P4-FSH for parts. Talk is that N7477S could sell for $10 million and P4-FSH for $1 million, or so.

Haven’t been out that way in almost 25 years when I myself was training at WAATS as an aircraft technical inspector. 0:42, I just checked a sure enough, that former Delta 744 with all the square panels cut out has had the skin metal turned into “skin tags”. Just found one on eBay.

@XLRSAv 5 ай бұрын

It’s crazy how expensive those are. I got a bolt from the TWA’s gear that’s 5x larger than the $94 plane tags. Sure they’re part of the aircraft, but very overpriced in my opinion. Gotta make money someway though I guess.

At 1:06, is that a 767 with an Alaska rutter? Its got a Virgin America tail number. Wouldn't that be interesting to see in service. And please, someone, scrap that TWA 747. American must have inherited it in the merger. Let her go. And those NW Cargo 747s. Delta...do the right thing!

@XLRSAv 8 ай бұрын

At 1:06, that’s a former VA and Alaska 320. For the TWA, it’s an icon at Pinal and most likely will fall apart since PlaneTags has cut so much metal off of it. For the NWA Cargos, one is in the final stages of being reactivated after 20+ years as the new global supertanker replacing the 747-400.
