NOT Abandoned- they are the US Air Force Special Detached Hidden Reserve Fleet. Now we gotta move them again...

If you search on Google Earth around the Nellis Range, you will find several more, in similar circumstances (but without the benefit of pavement under them in many cases). there are also a couple of F-8s and even an RF-84 (but in much poorer condition).

Cheers,

If anyone feels like going on an Easter egg hunt feel free to use this map as a starting point...

...as I don't have any of the Nellis range birds in the Locator. Remember right click on the map for coordinates.

However, for Eglin there are a "few" to be noted...

Here are some F-100s, F-4s, T-33s and possibly an A-7 in Idaho...

I know I have found others recently, I just don't remember where to look them up.
