747-400 Joins the End of Life Recycling Program

I knew something BIG was happening last night - there were lots of extra UAM folks, city officials and even a tv crew.  Imagine my surprise to see the arrival of another 747!  This 747-400 is a NEWER model, with better avionics and more marketability.  Boy, does that bird have serious back...

After running the power assurance checks on all 4 engines out on the runway - the team towed this new arrival over to UAM's facility.  Now I share the title of  "tallest structure" in the area.
