Since when do you need skilled labour to cut up an airliner ?

I saw a B727 get cut up with small grinding discs in Joburg a few years ago by a bunch of local labourers.

Better still one day to chop a DC8 with a JCB.

OK I will have it that you need supervision and technicians to retrieve reusable parts but surely you don't need many skilled staff.

Good luck to Llanbedr, this corner of Wales needs all the help and employment it can get.

I cant help thinking though, why didnt Woodford get used for this kind of operation.
