My guess would be some commercial aircraft somewhere
Ditto. Commercial aircraft only generate money when their landing gear is retracted. So there is a large incentive to keep them flying. On the other hand, most military aircraft actually get relatively little flying time, except in times of war. This is why the KC-135 tanker fleet is scheduled to fly for at least another 10 years (over 50 years total) and why the B-52 will also be flying into the forseeable future. Martin |
