Where are the retired aircrafts of PAF?

[truthlover]

HI everyone)I just read about the list of retired aircraft and helicopters of various types of PAF on Wikipedia since 1947.I calculated the figures from Wikipedia and there are total 1211 aircraft's PAF has used and retired so far.These figures include the fighter jets,trainers,bombers,transport aircraft and helicopters and the propeller aircraft's of the world war 2 era.
I am just curious to know that currently where are those huge retired squadrons of F6,A5 in hundreds etc.?Why they don't give the chance to buy those retired aircraft to eligible people with flying licences like CPL(commercial pilot license) with a flying passion but definitely without any war ammunition(bombs and rockets etc.).In this way they can earn some revenue from the aircraft which are getting spoiled somewhere.?Countries like Russia and USA already opened the sales of retired aircraft to general public and they successfully sold few aircraft to the general public.

There was one Sabre in PAF College Sargodha ... parked next to our main Admin block and there was another one parked at the entrance of Sargodha base (now they call it Mushaf base ...i think).

there is a F-6 boneyard at Faisal, next to the PAF Museum. there is a boneyard at Mauripur - derelict T-33 and B-57s can be located there. - i'm sure there are others at other AF bases.

40 F-6's and 40 A-5's have been kept in storage as reserves. dont know the location.

A mate of mine has the original control stick from a Sabre in his house... His father Bonnie Niazi was a PAF pilot who died of throat cancer in early 90's.

Interesting . That would be quite unique . How did he get that though ? Doesn't the PAF restrict such items ?

Thanks for all the pictures and contribution to this thread but these are few aircraft's.The aircrafts we see at such places all over pakistan are hardly 50-100.The retired squardons were of hundreds of aircrafts and i think they are right now parked or dissembled at some secret locations.

Then i think he should deserved a court martial for stealing the private property of pakistan air force.
