A lot of people don’t know New Mexico has a huge, fascinating aircraft boneyard

Not many know about this, but the US state of New Mexico is home to one of the world’s largest aircraft boneyards, located at the Roswell International Air Center.

It’s not just an abandoned barn of planes, it’s a place where aircraft are stored and taken apart in the most unexpected way – they are literally torn apart.

As they say in the video: “Welcome to Roswell, New Mexico, where aircraft come to die.”

The boneyard sits in a large dry desert with climate perfect for preserving planes from rusting and moisture, only to bring them to dust later on.

One of the world’s largest aircraft boneyard in New Mexico

From the most popular planes, from Boeing 747s to military jets, Roswell International Air Center is a resting place for many aircraft.

Now, how do they bring down these massive giants of the skies?

The aircraft boneyard is housed with large machines with massive claws, ready to bring down the planes to dust in just a few minutes.

It’s as if you are watching a giant mechanical dinosaur having lunch.

Once the plane is demolished, the workers sort through the parts, picking out pieces that can be resold.

The place is rumored to house a UFO

This place has also seen some other interesting planes, including one with a rich history and a claim to TV fame.

We’re talking about the Lockheed Jetstar, once owned by the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll, Elvis Presley.

On the other hand, a dark mystery surrounds the aircraft boneyard as well.

It is said that once a UFO landed nearby, and the US government instantly locked it in one of its hangers.

The UFO is still believed to be there, although we obviously can’t confirm anything.

Who knows if the UFO story is true or not, but we do know that working at the Roswell International Air Center and crushing giant planes daily would be one of the most fascinating jobs in the aviation industry.
