N627US 742 Finially gets the Coup de Grace

Well this more of post of Notable Inactivity. This plane landed with it’s nose gear up on Guam on Aug 19th 2005. And for 3 years, a month, and 10 days it’s sat idle on the ramp. Driving into work today I almost locked up my brakes when I came around the corner and saw they were finally starting the salvage process. Of course the NTSB sill hasn’t updated the accident report: ntsb.gov/ntsb/brief.asp?ev_i … 1501&key=1

I love the FAA’s notes:

The airplane was substantially damaged.

You figure?

Looks like the front fell off.
