Why were the two new Thomson B737-800s delivered to EMA? I thought they would have gone to Luton?

Monarch at ema next year? Since when? :)

Latest quick update taken about 30 mins ago, gear off and resting on sleepers prior to being dropped on the floor.
As you can see the weather here is pants.....:p

Would appear by the cutting, the cockpit isn't being scrapped.

Got to be seriously drafty for the SLF now. :E

Thanks for the pics NutLoose.

To save me trawling the thread... who actually owns the airframe (pre-destruction!)?

C.

Uk International Airlines, although probably East Mids Airport for unpaid parking after the airline went bust.

G-CECU, saw it parked up with the reg on the port side only. Good timing as I dind't realise it was for the axe so soon!

shame they are cannilbalising the cockpit, it would have been a good aeropark exhibit. :(

Are you sure that they havn't cleaned it up.

Thank you for the excellent series of photo's.

It's always a shame to see any aircraft destroyed but this has been the most pleasurable way.

Sorry to go off-topic, but does EMA still have a bus link with East Midlands Parkway rail station? The EMA website only gives information for a shared taxi service, nothing whatsoever about a bus link

Well, thank you for that, it is appreciated, I did wonder if anyone would be interested, but did feel it should be recorded, so took it on.

Ironically as it was being chopped, I saw one shot with the reg showing still......

the next grab took away most of it leaving only CU which I thought was apt

The one thing that amazed me out of it all though, was the component parts of a 767 when dumped in a pile are very little in quantity, admittedly a bit has been removed in this shot......... but not much, that pile IS a 767 or the sum of it's parts..

Thank you NutLoose for a great series of pics :ok:

PBO welcome, had a look too, seems as if it has disappeared, instead you get a prebooked taxi service...

seems it has gone see
