Gosh, I am shocked to see that China Eastern A340 there.
But thanks for posting these. Although not 'nice' to see, it is interesting to know what aircraft are stored and scrapped at Lourdes.

This China Eastern was arrived any days before for scrapping... Others will be coming here for same thing. I hope to catch all of them ;)

The basic A340's end is started, due to be replaced by A330's... more economical ;)

It's not very easy to take pictures around the scrapping area because many aircraft are not accessible all the time. Many luck is considerated. I often look the Skyliner-aviation.de website to see what aircraft arrive @ this scrapping/stored place.
