It seems
incredible that the gleaming flying icons of today's traveler
- the commercial airliner, have limited service lives.
Where have the thousands of commercial airliners manufactured
in the 1960s, 70’s, and 80’s gone? Most of
these multi-million dollar aircraft are eventually laid
to rest in a crude and unceremonious process. Incredibly,
scrapping companies can have a Boeing 747 stripped of its
major components and torn down to an empty hulk in less
than six weeks! Watch the amazing process of destroying
an aircraft and learn where its salvageable parts end up.
