This photo of the AMARC ramp was taken in July 1991 soon after the last FB-111A left Plattsburgh. No less than 12 'MO', 5 FB-111A and 1 F-111G are on the ramp!

The following photos of FBs were taken during a visit to AMARC in January 2007 by the webmaster, Philippe Colin. In addition, a few F-111G were seen during that visit.In late-1998, the RAAF set aside 11 F-111s at AMARC to be used for spare parts, mostly for airframe parts. In the selection process, EF's were chosen for the A-model airframe parts for the RAAF F-111C, Fs were chosen for the "Pave Tack" spare parts and the FB/Gs chosen for the RAAF F-111G. The RAAF was not buying these aircrafts but was paying to have them stored at AMARC for spare parts for their F-111 fleet. Two FB-111A, 67-0161 and 67-7195, and one F-111G, 68-0260 were included in this lot.
Above is a list of aircraft by type (FB and G) with their AMARC numbers and arrival date. Below are 2 galleries of photos taken at AMARC.
FB-111A 68-0249, BF0018, and 68-0250, BF0013, seen shortly after their arrival to AMARC.
