The first of six Boeing 737 MAX 8 planes — the model grounded after two crashes which killed 346 people — has touched down in Alice Springs for storage.

The Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) has given clearance for six Silk Air 737 MAX aircraft to be moved to the plane graveyard at Alice Springs Airport, so they can be stored safely during Singapore's tropical wet season.



I would not call Alice Springs an aircraft graveyard, more like an Aircraft Storage and Maintenance facility with CASA, EASA and FAA Part 145 approvals.
