When airplanes are retired, many of them end up stripped for parts that are worth millions of dollars. Almost every component from engines to landing gear. Those parts are in high demand — Boeing and Airbus are behind on deliveries of new aircraft and sold out of planes through the latter part of the decade, just as airlines are trying to capitalize on a resurgence in bookings.
