Boneyard Safari
Preserving Aviation HIstory

Check out the C-140 JetStar on the Dryden Ramp, a subscale propeller has been fitted to the upper fuselage of the aircraft in 1982. #jetstar #nasa #boneyardsafari #aviationsafari

Here is the XB-70 prototype aircraft No. 1. NASA used the pre-production bomber for high-speed research in the mid-1960’s. #xb70 #nasa #boneyardsafari #aviationsafariu

Check out three thrust-vectoring aircraft at Edwards, AFB, in flight, 1994. They were from left, NASA's F-18 High Alpha Research Vehicle (HARV), flown by the NASA Dryden Flight Research Center, the X-31, flown by the X-31 International Test Organization (ITO) at Dryden, and the Air Force F-16 Multi-Axis Thrust Vectoring (MATV) aircraft. #thrustvectoring #nasa #boneyardsafari #aviationsafariu

Someone mentioned they like canards, so here is the HiMAT (Highly Maneuverable Aircraft Technology) subscale research vehicle, seen here during a research flight, was flown by the NASA Dryden Flight Research Center, Edwards, California, from mid 1979 to January 1983. #himat #nasa #boneyardsafari #aviationsafari

Here is a closer look at the connection between the Orbiter and the 747SCA, it was located just forward of the main landing gear. Workers were removing the struts that attached Atlantis to the SCA after STS-125 when it was ferried from Edwards back to the Cape. #spaceshuttle #nasa #747sca #boneyardsafari #aviationsafari
