    Lightbulb 1st 777 retires to Arizona

    The first 777(B-HNL) came off the production line in 1994. It entered commercial service with CX in 2000 and was retired September 2018. It will go on display at the Pima Air & Space Museum in Tucson, AZ.
    Boneyard/AMARG tour (advance reservations required)-$10.00. Or you can walk the fence line on Valencia *wink* Tip: If you use manual focus and shoot through the gaps in the fence you'll get great unobstructed photos- of course you'll have to ID the planes yourself. *laughing*

    One of our friends will be staying an extra night with us for exactly this reason. He is retired Air Force and wants to go to the boneyard before he heads home from their guys trip across the southwest. I didn't realize the you needed advance reservations so I appreciate the heads up.

    Yeah I highly recommend the Pima Museum and the Boneyard/AMARG tram tour, definitely worth the price - if only to see the F101 Voodoo.
