Tucson, AZ

I lived there for a year as a lad. If you have time to sight see, I would recommend Sabino Canyon, the Desert Museum zoo, and Old Tucson movie studios, in that order. You need a car for all three. If you have a lot of time, Kitt Peak observatory is really cool to tour. And I've never been there but I think there is an airplane museum now in Tucson.

Davis-Monthan AFB is just outside Tucson, I think. That's where the giagantic aircraft boneyard is.

I wouldn't think just any ol' civilian can go in there, though.

AMARG [309th Aerospace Maintenance and Regeneration Group] takes care of more than 4,400 aircraft, which makes it the largest aircraft storage and preservation facility in the world.

E, again, TA: Wiki quote:

AMARG is a controlled-access site, and is off-limits to anyone not employed there without the proper clearance. The only access for non-cleared individuals is via a bus tour which is conducted by the nearby [~80 miles] Pima Air & Space Museum. Bus tours are Monday through Friday only.
