Its an MD-80 anyway. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

I looked into this accident a while ago, like around when it happend. I believe it was kept for parts. Which would make sense to me instead of just chucking it in the desert. As far as repairing it, I'm no airframe technitian but it looks to me like there's way to much internal damage to fix than it would be worth.
