Hi all.
I saw B733, ZS-OAI is being scrapped. Are there anymore aircraft headed for the scrapyard?

I dreamt of wings for soaring high and cutting wakes in yonder sky...

Re: Comair scrapping aircraft
Possibly also its sister-ship B737-33A, ZS-OAH, if it hasn't been scrapped already.
The remaining B737-376's are apparently also very high time airframes, so I think its fair to say that they can't be expected to be around forever either.

Re: Comair scrapping aircraft
Those were leased aircraft. When the lease ended they were returned to the lessor and the lessors probably decided to scrap the aircraft rather than pay to have them returned to service somewhere else in the world.
