The second Boeing 767-300ER from the AUA fleet hangs up its wings. The machine with the registration OE-LAX left Vienna for the USA today.

The machine will initially fly to Bangor in the US state of Maine under flight number OS 1411, where customs clearance will be processed. After this stopover, the flight number OS 1413 continues to the final destination, Oscoda-Wurtsmith Airport in Michigan. 

As is known, the three oldest versions of the long-haul jet are gradually being transferred to the United States at Pinal Airpark. There they are handed over to the company MonoCoque Diversified Interests, which specializes in the extraction of used spare parts. The OE-LAT made the start, and finally the OE-LAW will follow in the course of the year.

Initially in action at Lauda Air

The OE-LAX was originally delivered to Lauda Air in December 1992. This Boeing 767-300ER joined the AUA fleet in 2004, because at that time the flight operations of Lauda Air, which had been taken over a few years earlier, were merged with those of Austrian Airlines. According to Austrian Airlines, the plane has completed around 1992 landings and over 19.600 flight hours since 133.600.
