First A380 fully dismantled

Posted on by Jon Champs

Tarmac Aerosave announced that it has completed the first ever full dismantling of an Airbus A380, salvaging 91% of its parts and materials.

The whole process has taken 11 months, and a complex array of new processes and tools had to be manufactured to carry out the operation.

At least two more aircraft are scheduled for the 2020-21 period.

When you say it’s ‘them and us’; I’m with them. The people who make the decisions you never know about? I’m with them. You want to talk to me? I’ll be standing over there. With them.
