I don't suppose you will be posting their serial numbers.
Hah! My understanding is that the insurance company determines if repair is justified and when the aircraft is totaled, then they sell it to a salvage operator and pocket the money gained. In the US, there are various colored tags to document the repair/overhaul status of used equipment and licensed mechanics will not install equipment without such a tag or doing the overhaul for you. Anything similar in Europe?
