Oh neat I drive by Aircraft Demolition's office every day on the way home from work !! Very cool!!
What happened to the BA 777 at LAS??? It was here one day and gone the next it seemed like. I doubt it flew. And this weekend an AN-124 was here. Maybe flying the parts back up to Seattle?
Reportedly repaired and back in service: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Airways_Flight_2276

It's a typo on Aviation Week's part. It's NOT an ER.
This appears to be more of a careful dismantling to study, than a shred and turn into beer can, project. I would be curious about the circumstances where a 20 year old aircraft is sectioned. Fatigue failure? Cycles? Hours? Very early hull intended for sectioning after use? Any sleuths out there able to shed light - BEGIN!
