Looks like a BAC Strikemaster and a MiG were in the hangars and had gotten damaged too.

Are there any pictures of the other hangar housing the B-58? She stands on some pretty tall legs, so hopefully there won't be as much corrosion potential to the airframe.

Please keep us up to date on the clean up / recovery / restoration process. I can possibly lend a hand when you guys get to that phase.
Good luck and best wishes!

The nose cone on the pod for the 58 is smashed and torn open. Two lower fins on the pod are also some where but not on the pod. The nose wheel linkage is seperated/broken. The hangar with the B-58 had most of the trash a debris. In some places a foot thick. Everything that stood in the TAHF is washed out and destroyed. I was able to find some artifacts yesterday. Someones roof was in the museum, several live and dead animals. But numerous aircraft were pulled out of the museum and were washed colmpletely inside and out. So the recovery process has started.
