Old Aircraft - How much longer can they fly?
In light of the C210 that went down in the Kimberley this morning. It raises the question, how much longer will CASA let these sh*t boxes fly for.
If it was a 30 year old car they would have been scraped long ago. How much longer do we use the excuse that the industry has no money to upgrade the fleets and rely on the exceptional skill of pilots like the fella this morning to keep them in the air.
Will we still be flying these in 50 years, 60 years, 70 years....where do we draw the line.
Interested in your comments.
