The New Journey of Scrap Planes Has Started

Two passenger planes, which have been standing in a scrap condition at Istanbul Atatürk Airport for many years, will be transported by land for upcycling and utilization in various fields. The 57-year-old Antonov AN-12 cargo and the 42-year-old Airbus A300 type passenger plane from the time of the Soviet Union will be transported by road from Yeşilköy to Tuzla in Istanbul. Both expected the end of the legal process to remove the planes belonging to financially bankrupt companies.
