On June 30, Ikaros Shuppan released “Monthly Airline August 2023,” an A4-size, 180-page book priced at 1,595 yen.
With the retirement of the JAL 777-200ER now in the spotlight, we present “The Truth About Decommissioned Aircraft,” a special feature that delves into the little-known truth about how airlines sell their aircraft when one ends its service life.
What is the fate that awaits retired airliners, what is a sale ferry flight, what is a graveyard of airliners, what is the used aircraft market, what is the dismantling of airliners? ……The stories behind the “retirement” of retired airliners, which are unknown to the public, are introduced from many angles.
The Boeing 767, which celebrated its 40th anniversary in service, will also be reported on, including domestic flight reports, an introduction to the 767 by a mechanic, the history of specially painted aircraft, and the history of ANA’s operation of the aircraft.
In addition, many other recent news items are included, such as the Pikachu Jet NH and JAL Colorful Dreams Express, which are now in operation by ANA and JAL, and Boeing’s ecoDemonstrator, an advanced technology demonstration aircraft.
