    I have purchased parts from BAS, and in your video, saw several planes that were operated by a company I worked for in the 1980s. Like a time capsule into my long over nightmare flying for airlines.

    Very interesting video I have learned a lot and the video is top notch. It was always my understanding airplane parts could not be reused they were required to be replaced with new parts. Glad to know someone goes through the trouble to recycle these planes there are plenty of them out there.

    I first starting buying g parts and ferrying Citations for White Industries in the early 80's. At that time the airfield was just dirt. The planes were lined up in rows by manufacturer and easy to navigate. Of course the trees were not a favorite that time. I visited the Bates city facility just as BAS acquired the inventory. It was truly amazingly to see how the place had changed since I first visited. Randy B

      @@ronrutten5889 I never got to fly on a DASH 7. However, I used to see them at MITCHELL INTERNATIONAL in Milwaukee all the time back in the 1980’s. They were almost like a helicopter since they didn’t need much of a runway. Unique sound too much like a small C130 since it has 4 engines. They only built the DASH 7 for 13 years. Oh well.

    Terribly sad to see the Embraer E110's at the end of their days. I flew them in PNG and into West Papua for years and they were ideal for remote area freight and passenger operations. Apart from the lack of a pilots side escape door I thought it was a close second to the DHC-6 Twin Otter for utility and safety. Now I see my old Fokker F28-1000's and -4000's rotting away and it makes me feel old.
