Aviation salvage operation, that is. I've been wanting to go for quite some time now and I know of one in Griffin, GA. I'd like to visit the boneyards out West, but a visit to our smaller version will have to do for now. I'm hoping to get a small tour of the place and ask a few questions; the email response on that hasn't come back, yet.
The whole process is very interesting to me; how it works and who all is involved. It's kind of like the circle of life-- minus the whole emotional part. Seemingly every part of a plane that isn't completely destroyed in an incident gets refurbished and sold. I'll know more about it soon, hopefully.
I have a hidden agenda as well [cue mysterious music]. I'm looking to obtain an aircraft seat of some sort. I'm cheap, so I'm hitting the salvage yards first; I'd rather not spend more than $200.
I'm going to the junkyard
