Title: Davis Monthan AFB
Post by: casper on November 14, 2008, 01:23:34 PM

Did anyone get a chance to watch Stephen Fry in America last week? He flew in a B-17 and visited the desert boneyard that is Davis Monthan AFB. If you missed it you can see it here

Skip forward to around 27 minutes.

i think jeremy clarkson did something like that when we filmed a show in america, i think it was the one when he shot the hell out of a corvette. but i can't remember what type of jet it was he got.
