Have you thought that perhaps at age 63 Travolta may no longer wish to retain the privileges (and training obligations) of an ATPL or CPL or whether donating his B707 is because he's given up heavy flying or the aircraft has passed it's economic use by date? Or perhaps it no longer complies with environmental laws where he wishes to go?
A wonderful donation. Second Qantas B707 to return to Australia.
