I'm thinking that Malaysia might run things a little too loosely for me to feel comfortable riding in any of their airplanes.

Ya, thats not hard to chase down via the internet. I'm thinking the company knows where they left them, its just cheaper than paying to scrap the bastards...

I'm thinking of backdating a 747. Will that hurt the value?

Article says the airport may sell them if they go unclaimed. Most likely for scrap, without logbooks they aren't worth much.

Way sweet.
Hand file or did you puss out and use a Harbor Freight air file? It's ok if you did. Not throwing stones.

That's just silly.
But I've just bought a Lincoln MIG welder with an aluminium feeder hand piece. I know these airplanes have a serious rep for maintenance, but I'm keen to learn, and I could practice on the unstressed bits first. I'll post loads of pics.
