Hi!
I was reading about certain aircrafts accumulating wery high number of
in-air time. What's the usual procedure/numbers and when are aircrafts
to be scrapped?
Typical example was 73' L-1011 Tristar with 51,951 hours and 25,691
cycles. That's 6 years of non-stop flying!
(That particular aircraft was one of the first built and suffered
explosive decompression in '95, and was scrapped)
