Sad Sight: First Two Airbus A380 In The Scrapyards | Airways Magazine

The first two ex-Singapore Airlines Airbus A380s are being scrapped in Tarbes, France, after having failed to find a second-hand operator.

only 12 years old, but apparently orphans as 1st few had different wiring etc. Parts obviously worth a bit, but makes you wonder what they would have been worth to the likes of Hi Fly who took 1 used A380. Hi Fly must have got a maintenance deal from airbus.
