EP4 Story of the week: How six Boeing 747s became logistical nightmare for Lufthansa
Storing aircraft could become quite a headache for airlines and Lufthansa (LHAB (https://www.aerotime.aero/financial-market-chart?tvwidgetsymbol=SWB:LHAB)) (LHA (https://www.aerotime.aero/financial-market-chart?tvwidgetsymbol=FWB:LHA)) might be a great case to examine. The German airline flew six Boeing 747s to storage at a small Dutch airport in order to park them where doing so is much cheaper. However, when it later wanted to send the aircraft to scrap them – Lufthansa was unable to do so, as the airport’s runway was not certified to allow such heavy aircraft to depart. Yet they were allowed to land. Now, the first of the six 747s stored at the airport finally departed toward its final destination, Mojave Air & Space Port (MHV).
