Forum rules
ImageThis is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum.
Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post.
In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.).

Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so.

Hi All,

Visited Pima Air & Space museum back in October. Since my last visit there back in 2007, they have added many new interesting birds.

Great pictures.. What was the damage to the aircraft. What I could find on some sites is about a fire behind one of the panels in the cockpit, but no mention about damage beyond repair.

Thanks.

I could also only find text about the fire in the panel.

It wasn't necessarily damaged beyond repair. It was one of the Boeing test airframes (so it only flew in ANA colours for publicity purposes) and was withdrawn from use, after which it was donated to the Pima museum. More likely that this was a case of "job well done, now you can rest at Pima"!
