Gee, they coulda had all United’s old 2 pilot 747-400s. United and Boeing cut a deal that when their new -787s were delivered, they’d all go to the boneyard.

My wife got a chunk of fuselage (2”x3” size) of the first one she ever flew as a Christmas gift. Guess all the rest of the ‘lunium is beer cans by now.
