    When visited the Davis Monthan AFB neat Tucson about ten years ago, there were dozens/hundreds of F111s just sitting there in the desert.

    As to handing stuff back. There were two US spec. F4s sitting on the tarmac at RAF Fairford for several years. Apparently we tried to hand them back to the US but over the years the paperwork had got lost. I guess they were part of that batch recovered from Davis Monthan for Falkland Islands AD in the 1980s.

    Where they'll probably remain for some time.
