Besides chopping these old A/C up ...what else is done with them? are
they ever put up for sale?..... for static displays etc..?


Some do end up as static displays. Some end up as targets in bombing
ranges. A whole bunch of A-6s were dumped at sea to form an artificial
reef. And several A-7s are going to be placed on the former USS America
when she is sunk at sea during explosives tests.
