Well thats a good question.
U ever heard about the Eastern L1011, that went in, in the Everglades somewhere in the seventies?
Apparently some parts of that plane were used on another L1011 from eastern.
Remember the Kegworth crash from BMA, I picked up a rumor that some parts were used on G-....
You know now which a/c I mean hopefully
Does that answer your question?

Thank you Hate The8 for your response, brilliant, one lost Boeing acounted for.
By the way, does your username imply that you donīt like a paticular Douglas product?
Any thanks for finding the wereabouts of 24300. http://www.crewstart.com/ubb/images/icons/smile.gif

I think of it as an affectionate name for the old workhorse.
