Desert Airliners, by Graham Robson
A sad fact of life is that the shiny new car we bought last year has, on average, an eight year 'life' before it goes through a recycling program. And, as we all know, the cost of maintenance and likelihood of a breakdown increases with age. The same is true of the modern airliner. The 1950's and 1960's era piston and turboprop aircraft (such as the Viscount, DC-6) saw front line service for about 10 years tops, then were sold to secondary airlines, and many ended their days as freighters. A Viscount with 20,000 hours was considered 'worn out'. The modern jetliner, by contrast, enjoys a much longer, though still finite life. A 100,000 hour 747 can still be very productive and active.

A sad fact of life is that the shiny new car we bought last year has, on average, an eight year 'life' before it goes through a recycling program. And, as we all know, the cost of maintenance and likelihood of a breakdown increases with age. The same is true of the modern airliner. The 1950's and 1960's era piston and turboprop aircraft (such as the Viscount, DC-6) saw front line service for about 10 years tops, then were sold to secondary airlines, and many ended their days as freighters. A Viscount with 20,000 hours was considered 'worn out'. The modern jetliner, by contrast, enjoys a much longer, though still finite life. A 100,000 hour 747 can still be very productive and active. What seems to doom most airliners today is not so much its age, but its operating costs, and in particular its fuel consumption. For many years now, airlines that retire an aircraft have not always been able to find a customer for it, and as a result have 'stored' the airplane at an airfield in the southwest United States. These airfields - Marana, Mohave, Victorville, Goodyear, Tucson and more - offer relatively cheap and secure storage, combined with a dry climate that is very conducive to long term storage. Add a Fixed Base Operator (FBO) that will perform routine maintenance such as moving the airplane once a month so the tires don't develop flat spots, check fluids, hydraulics and start engines twice a year, and an airiner can be stored for a long time. An excellent case in point - an ex Qantas Boeing 707-138B was stored in the souhtern UK for over 10 years. When it was recently purchased for a museum in Australia, and had to be prepared for flight, it was found to be in very good condition. And that's a plane stored on a relatively damp UK airfield. Sadly, however, many of these airliners don't find a buyer. A combination of too many hours, and more likely needing an expensive 'D' check dooms the once proud jetliner. These aircraft go through a 'recycling' process, where first all useable and salvageable parts (engines, landing gear, cockpit instrumentation, cabin and baggage doors, and pretty much any moving part) are removed, overhauled, and sold. The 'fixed' airframe, by now looking pretty sad, may be stored for a while (you never know when Hollywood will want one to simulate a wreck - think the ANA 747 in 'War of the Worlds'), but ultimately will be torn apart and recycled. This book documents this process, showing hundreds of photos of stored airliners at various stages of the store/salvage/scrap process. Its sad to see, but inevitably every airliner will suffer the process. A highly recommended book!
