Virgin's Millenium Falcon goes into de "Dark Side"

Post by joseluiscel »

One of the best looking Virgin 747-400, G-VLIP "The Falcon" flew her last leg to Ciudad Real Airport (CQM / LERL) where she is kept in storage along with G-VGAL "Jersey Girl" and G-VROY "Pretty Woman". Now we know that the latter has been allocated by GECAS to Atlas Air for comversion to freighter and the other two will be "recicled" for parts. Proccess has already begun and "The Falcon" is slowly being stripped of the giant vinyls showing Starwars's Millenium Falcon as her future turns more and more dark. Queen of the Skies forever.
