The aircraft was seized for a long time and airport operator Brussels Airport Company could only leave it alone, but eventually the operator also became the owner of the aircraft. “It has now been sold to the dismantling company Eco-FLY,” says Nathalie Pierard of Brussels Airport. The dismantling started on Monday and will normally last until the end of March.
A small part of a wing will remain at the airport after dismantling. “We want to use this to set up somewhere strategically, to do tests during winter periods to see what the effects are on an aircraft under specific weather conditions, such as very cold weather and snow,” the spokeswoman said.
For a long time there was a second ECAir aircraft in a hangar at Brussels Airport, but that has been gone for some time.
