US Airways took the parts of it that they wanted, it was sold to source one and it is now a fire training airplane at PHL Airport.
 
It''s been a while, and I almost forgot about it until I noticed for the first time that A/C 654 was no longer sitting by the hangar in PHL. This, I believe, was the catastrophically damaged 767 that was written off and sold for scrap. Did it get disassembled and carted out? And, if so when and to whom?

Is it true that it was ruled unairworthy and the buyer was also not allowed to repair it to make it airworthy. Not that they would due to the overwhelming damage costs.
 
looks like it never will leave the field....
