Great question. I'm not really sure. It would depend on what steps were taken to preserve it. This plane is 25 years old, which reduces the number of carriers to which it is attractive.
@indyfan22k - a cycle is one takeoff and landing. There are still a number of NW planes in DL service, but some of the older ones are getting shipped out. This one could still be useful to a cargo airline due to its relatively low cycles. It's in storage in Arizona right now and has been for 2 years, so time is running out.

What's a cycle ? IS this what happened to most NorthwestOrient planes after they were bought out by Delta ? (by going to the Pinal Park boneyard)
