Chapter 528 - 255: Abstract
Allen Zhang signaled Zorro next to him to open the box and check the goods. He went back to the truck, found a handy wrench, and pried open the tightly sealed box, indeed, he saw some mechanical parts inside.
Nuts, screws, plastic sealing strips, all sealed in plastic bags, and some steel plates, circuits, buttons, displays, and mechanical parts that were hard to understand.
Marushen handed the prepared list to the General Sect Leader for review, "This is the price and project list for recycling these scrap steels. If it’s okay, transfer the money over. Let’s make it official this time, split into two accounts, one for the airplane graveyard’s scrap sales project account, and one for our private account."
Allen Zhang glanced at the printed project list, densely filled with the selling prices of the parts, all officially scrapped and intended for public sale.
Moreover, to further legalize it, they were extra cautious. When determining whether the parts were to be scrapped, they labeled them as [To Be Scrapped] or [Remaining Service Life xx Times].
Because the service life of combat aircraft includes a take-off life, when nearing expiration, they are forcibly retired and sent to the airplane graveyard to rest. Ground personnel would then remove some parts that were replaced mid-term or recently on the aircraft body to continue using as spare parts in service.
Those parts that were about to be scrapped or whose service life had expired were audited as scrap steel resources for processing, to be sold to metal recycling energy companies or waste recycling stations, all through official legal processes.
Parts nearing scrapping or end of life are not unusable. Military standards are much higher than civilian standards. Although the take-off life of service aircraft is exhausted, they can still be used for many years in civilian use, after all, they are not going into combat, and the flying intensity is not high.
Buying aircraft parts, even if you could assemble them yourself.
But the thing is too risky, if any accident occurs, the official will not compensate.
