Boeing plane abandoned in Hong Kong by bankrupt Russian airline up for sale for US$795,000 … but is it worth it?


An old Boeing plane abandoned in Hong Kong four years ago by a bankrupt Russian carrier is now available to any buyer willing to stump up US$795,000 (HK$6.2 million).

The Airport Authority Hong Kong has sought submissions from parties to purchase and remove the 27-year-old Boeing 767. In its tender invitation, the authority stated that the plane had no maintenance records and was not in good condition. It added that the successful bidder was required to remove the aircraft within three months, whether as a whole or in parts.
