New teardown project
TDA acquired another aircraft for teardown. MSN32418 (a Boeing 737-700) is currently being disassembled by eCube in Castellón, Spain. It’s the 7th 737-700 aircraft to be added to our teardown portfolio. It’s our first 737 teardown this year and our first Boeing aircraft since MSN28622.
Currently in disassembly
The disassembly process has just started. All vital components have been checked and inspected for repairs and possible re-modifications by our (after) sales and technical team.
The aircraft comes with some interesting items. Unlike most 737s, this airframe has 2x ADF antenna’s. This airframe also has winglets which we’re installed in 2010 after being retired from EasyJet. Thank to it’s first operator this airframe also used to carry an airstair underneath the passenger boarding door.
The majority of the parts will ship to our global warehouses, from where we serve the USM market.
This historical milestone once again emphasizes the rapid growth of TDA, enabling us to offer the highest quality and configuration of components on the market. We will continue to acquire younger aircraft for teardown, also differentiating us from the competition at this level.

| Parts enquiry and special requirements
Since we are amid teardown, it’s currently possible to place requests for special parts such as cut off cockpits (for flight simulation purposes), complete fuselages (suitable for training and educational purposes), and more. All components harvested from this aircraft will be tagged as soon as possible for end-use purposes.
