So how do you get this thing out of there? Unbolt the wings? What about the tail? What does it weigh?

 

[Geezer II]

Dang is that fuel draining out of the wing

Engines come off
wings come off (2 sections ea side)
vertical stab comes off
horizontal stab comes off

Crane will do it all as well as lift it on a flatbed and hauled back too a depot for evaluation.

Yep, equivalent too diesel fuel....

They’ll do an environmental cleanup as well, fuel will be burned off the dirt or depending on quantity trucked away to be done.
