Scrapping Boeing's first 767-300, (JA8236) prototype airliner. ARC Aerospace Demoed / Scrapped the aircraft in January 2010 for its recyclable metal. The cockpit section was saved for a museum. More on this plane and many other can be seen in a BOOK visit: http://www.JunkyardJets.net

I love planes. This is hard to see. Would you know what they do with the old pan am airplanes? Is there a place where I could go and may be salvage a pilot's cabin or something? or even to take pictures. I loved Pan Am. I have space outside my house. Thanks.

@11MRKARL Unfortunately there are none out there available for the privet collector. Scroggins Aviation built the Cockpit for the ABC show “Pan Am” and supplied the cabin interior too. Most of those items were from old Pan Am, Northwest and Western. aircraft out of Tucson, AZ. DS

The Demo was done at ARC's pad at the SCLA Airport, Victorville, CA.

OMG! As a 767 rated pilot this is hard to watch. Such a significant aircraft, the first -300. This model has flown more trans-Atlantic flights than any other Boeing. What a shame. Such a useful machine and not even that old :(

@WilliamPotts3 My company scrapped ship number 1 for Boeing several years back and we also scrapped the first -200(ER) model and yes i was sad to see the first -300 go. i did save the cockpits from the -200ER and the -300 for a musuem.  Viist JunkyardJets net a book on the subject. Thanks for stopping by, Doug

These aircraft that are ripped up, have exceeded total hours of flight on the airframe. Do a search of Jet Airliners for sale....note how many flying hours are on them. Each, each flight has the structure of the aircraft expanding, stretching like a balloon. Each flight, the aircraft expands with internal pressurization....there is a predicted limit, metal fatigue, of how many times an airframe can be stretched, stressed before failures can occur. This airframe has maybe flown 700K people!

did they have to fly the plane all the way from japan?

[candy19817]

@convairjet Hi Doug, what kind of materials are typically salvaged from the plane when you do it like this?

Do you do all the salvaging, or just break the plane down into managable chunks to go to a slavage company?

Thanks for the video :)
