@beatlespersun Take it you're also a Beatles fan. Wonder what happened to the Pan Am 707 they flew to the US in 1964? Heard it's in Long Beach, CA all torn up. Do you have any pics? Thanks.

@beatlespersun They do all those, but there are still 100s of airframes left. They will eventually be scrapped, cut up and melted down into aluminum ingots to be recycled, and materials such as copper wiring will also be recycled. Saw a doc recently that showed the process--they're just waiting their turns being scrapped, and they're stripped of useable parts until then. A year from now there'll be other old planes where these are & these will be soda cans, engine blocks, etc.

@beatlespersun Exacty my idea! :'(

@beatlespersun Actually they DO do this with the ones that are still fit to fly or don't cost millions to repair and get flight ready. There are just more planes than there are uses for em.
