KAG is now sat in HKG with one or two engines off the wing so maybe there was more damage??

Thought I saw B-KAG at HAECO (in the bay that faces out to sea) a few weeks ago with engines and at least one pylon removed. has it really been written off?

No rush to repair as no crew and 5th 400 arriving soon. Both to be used as hot spares, again due to no crew.

Big Bill

Last I heard it was to be £10mill US to fix, parts being robbed for other aircraft both KA and CX as KAG not exactly needed at present. Would require a much bigger bill than that to write it off.
