Very unfortunate that the lives lost in this Malaysian plane were not treated in par with the lives lost in Titanic Ship! Well, nothing can be done as not even a single minute trace of this aircraft was found even after a 3-year search! Otherwise, they would hv made a much bigger charbuster movie on this too!
Screw that, I would buy it, restore it and turn it into my own private Plane! Even scrounging for engines and refurbishing, would still be cheaper than a small private plane!
I quite like the idea of living in a plane - say, the front half of a 747, though I am sure the local housing and land development regulators might have a differing opinion on that.
Why can`t the metal can be used for making cars and instead of dismantling old planes they may be taken to islands and used as small malls, supermarkets and restaurants. truly it would be sound proof and AC ready. thanks.
Boeing and Airbus fuselages are designed to flex during pressurization, which causes the lifespan issue. McDonnel Douglas DC-9 and DC-10 series were designed to NOT flex during pressurization, so pressurization cycles do not apply. I worked on a DC-10 that had over 190,000 hours when it was retired.
WE REALLY NEED TO INFORM YOUR SHRINK TO INCREASE YOUR DELUSIONAL MEDS. EVERY COMMERCIAL AIRCRAFT IN THE WORLD FLEXS DURING PRESSURIZATION THERE IS NOW WAY AROUND IT. YOUR MOTHER SAID THE ONLY AIRCRAFT YOU EVER WORKED ON WAS A PAPER AIRPLANE IN THE SANITARIUM WERE YOU GREW UP IN . 😂😂😂😂
Got news for you. All fuselages will flex to some extent depending on the actual design. It is all a matter of degree and where the design stress is located on the S-N curve (stress level versus number of cycles the metal is exposed to). Back to Engineering 101. There sre no absolutes.
I know a guy who works for the Gold Reserve Corporation, a mining company. He told me that if you want to know where old cars go, they are all being used as taxicabs in Caracas, Venezuala.
The metals may be recycled to build new planes. Some valuable instruments and circuit boards may be reconditioned with certificates and used as spares for planes which are in service.
Which begs the question. Are the 787 and soon to be produced 797 a disruptor in this market? They are essentially immortal planes as they have no metal to fatigue. All u need to do is re-engine them and refit them with new interiors and voila a “brand new airplane “.
thats just wrong :) you need the "intire"insides of a plane also, just not the metal.. plane is way more than just metal.. just imagine how well wires run on bare metal.. so :) making a new one is cheaper.. right? immortal is a bad word to even use.. its one of those famous last ones, im "immortal" in my "brand new airplane".. sure you are :D some questions dont need to even be asked.. even if you beg
The newest B-52H is 60 years old. Some will be over a 100 years old when they are finally retired. So I guess it is possible to keep a plane flying indefinitely if your throw enough refurbishment at it.
Anything is possible if You put money in preventative maintenance and regular maintenance! The Aircraft industry is now into planned obsolescence more than ever! So Sad!
All aluminum aircraft have a known maximum number of takeoff and landing cycles, based on the engineers’ calculations of metal fatigue. I think that for a 747 it’s something like 50,000. The highest time airplane of all time is a DC3 with something like 90,000+ flying hours. It’s around 85 years old. So an aircraft can’t be used beyond the original design limits. Military aircraft actually get very little use. Some types can be retired with as little as 5000-10,000 hours, and it may take them decades to accumulate that much time.
I'm surprised they aren't selling the old fighter planes to museums all around the world. Strip out the guts but leave only the visible parts so that they're not functional but people can still have a look at them.
The word is AEROPLANE, not "airplane". My information is from THE OXFORD ENGLISH DICTIONARY, published by Oxford University Press. Currently running at 20 large volumes, it is the most comprehensive, universally respected and authoritative English Dictionary in the world.
Passenger aircraft are too expensive that they can simply be scrapped like an old washing machine. Of course there is a big question about what could be done with the planes.
0:50 Metal fatigue might happen with the wings and where the wings are attached. And the landing gear. This is where one could start making these parts easily replaceable.
Non body understanding, too much production, has destroyed our Globo. Where are you going to through way millions of planes? Greed is the most problem in our lives. From Brazil

amazing video everyone must just know knowvits retirement and post retirement use wisely. it is really my wish to buy a small flight for conversion as a house but I can only dream. I am poor. can't even travel in a flight. thank you very much for the video. please upload similar such thought provoking videos.
Can be converted them as a Library, Small Hospital, Clinic, small shop, food corner, small pub or music cafe, Pre School, small movie Theater, children playground, swimming pool, aquarium, flower/vegetable/Fruit garden, laundry center, corporate office, hotel/motel, museum etc
Seems a little disrespectful considering the engineering feet that the aircraft was originally designed for! Like turning a Decommissioned Military ship into a Group Home for Mentally Challenged People!
In Mykolayiv(the city in the South of Ukraine) also was a plane which was reconstructed after its flying service. It's was the cinema inside fuselage. The model- Il(ilushin)62. When I was a child I liked to watch cartoons in the plane-cinema
Lets use these vast resources to house the homeless from around the nation. Talk to your congressman and plant this seed idea. They already come with equipment that still works onboard to make power. Solar panels and gardens can be introduced to ensure longevity.
Yes Sir, I have an excellent idea for retired aircraft, my dream to transitioning from a 37 year career veteran commercial truck owner operator to an international cargo jet owner operator! A bit of structural reinforcement, retro-upgraded engines and a modern suite of updated flight systems and wallah, you have an entirely new industry of repurposed defunkt commercial jetliners.
Convert these planes in Hospital 🏥 for homeless ppl out there in Covid19..... hope this idea will work out.... Pray for the world 🌎 to recover from this pandemic!!
In reality though, they're just left to rot, instead of reusing the materials. Kinda stupid really. Much like unsold cars that are perfectly useable still, but since they won't get money, nobody is allowed to.

Many parts are, if they don't think the parts are safe enough for use in new planes, they're scrapped and after a crash the entire plane is scrapped
The metals may be recycled to build new planes. Some valuable instruments and circuit boards may be reconditioned with certificates and used as spares for planes which are in service.
