wow, you look at the bundles/wiring harnesses and all the parts that go into making a flyable aircraft and it is absolutely amazing that everything hooks up perfect and works like a charm....quite a feat for engineers and the mechanics that keep them flying.
-
wonderful to know some of these old retired planes get a new life or spare parts to reuse in other planes as well, thank you for the video.
-
Given 10s of thousands of different parts that has to be an inventory nightmare. I was in charge of a few thousand parts and that was hard enough. My hat's off to those men and women 😊

I've built Fokker 100 and 70's a long time back. This dismantling just tears a hole through my soul! I know all planes need to face their end at some point, but.....ouch Edit: Damnit, this is worse then watching a funeral! To any of the planes I worked on: I put my heart into each and every one of you. Thank you for your service

This is so sad, those planes don’t deserve to be ruthlessly destroyed
-
The Pima Air Museum is amazing. I am glad there are museums that love on these old work horses of freedom!💗
-
I'm glad I have a warplane museum near me that has the only Lancaster that you can go for a ride in.

I’ve watched & enjoyed videos that discussed the 737 Combi that serviced remote airports such as Barrow AK and the mines and oil fields of Northern Canada. These jets that include side doors may be configured through the use of various to transport freight, vehicles and passengers. What a great concept. The last video I watched mentioned the Combi jets were being phased out. Too bad!
-
Outstanding! Thank you.
-
The RNZAF still operate C-130's from the Vietnam era, 58 years old.
-
The music at the beginning makes me feel like I’m reading the background story of a mid 90’s computer game. I like it!
-
take a section of that and put pontoons under it and make a cool houseboat or boathouse
-
Outstanding Presentation
-
Enjoyed the video. To me I think that would be a fun place to work except for the heat of the dessert.
-
It's always been a 😭 moment for me when I hear of a plane being flown for retirement in a bone yard... Somewhat of a "sentimental journey", you might say😟
-
An FYI, those jets you see at Davis Monthan at the 5:28 mark were not dismantled. They intentionally chopped the frame of those B-52s with a huge portable guillotine as part of a nuclear reduction pact with the USSR.
-
The Swoose Goose is being restored at the Museum of the United States Air Force right now. It is the only B-17 D in existence. It will take anywhere up to 10 years to restore. I can’t wait to see it finished,I saw it shoved into the back of one of the hangars when I was last at the museum back in 2014. They were still restoring the Memphis Bell at the time.
-
Great narration!
-
Thank you this is fascinating.

I kept some room in my backyard for one A380 and one 747-8 ;o)
