Here’s Where Airlines Are Storing The Boeing 737 MAX

Courtesy of The Points Guy by Max Prosperi

With the timeline for re-entry into service unclear and the aircraft grounded worldwide, many airlines have made the decision to store their Boeing 737 MAXes at secondary airports and desert-storage facilities rather than allow them to take up space at major airports. Though reports indicated that the Boeing 737 MAX could re-enter service as soon as this June, airlines do not seem to be as confident in that timeline. Last week, Southwest Airlines and American Airlines announced that the plane would be removed from schedules through the busy summer travel season.

More than two months since the aircraft was grounded, here’s where airlines are storing the Boeing 737 MAX.

Southwest Airlines

Southwest Airlines is the biggest operator of the MAX worldwide; it relocated its whole fleet to a particular airport. As of April 19th, all 34 of Southwest Airlines’ Boeing 737 MAX 8 aircraft are parked in storage at Southern California Logistics Airport in Victorville, CA.

American Airlines

11 of the airline’s 24 Boeing 737 MAX 8 aircraft are located at the airline’s maintenance facility in Tulsa. Storing the 737 MAX 8 at the airline’s primary maintenance base provides American Airlines with inexpensive storage and easy access to maintenance personnel.

Additionally, eight are in storage at Roswell in New Mexico, also noted like Victorville for the dry desert climate that’s easy on metal. The rest are scattered at minor airports in the US.

Air Canada

Air Canada’s fleet of Boeing 737 MAX 8 aircraft is currently stored throughout Canada. The airline’s MAX aircraft can be found both at the airline’s major hubs like Montreal Airport (YUL) as well as smaller airports like Trois-Rivières Airport (YRQ). The airline operates the third-largest fleet of Boeing 737 MAXs worldwide.

WestJet

WestJet has also stored its fleet of Boeing 737 MAX aircraft throughout Canada at various airports. Unlike Air Canada, WestJet’s aircraft are stored at larger airports each with regularly scheduled passenger service. The airport with the most WestJet 737 MAX aircraft is Kelowna Airport (YLW) located 257 miles east of Vancouver in British Columbia.

Storing The 737 MAX: A Potentially Pricey Task

We reached out to various airlines for information regarding the storage of their MAX aircraft, but none was willing to say how much storing the planes costs. Eric Ray, the director of Southern California Logistics Airport at Victorville, told us that the airport’s base fee for monthly storage of a Boeing 737 is $450 per month. However, Ray noted that this is merely a baseline; airlines have to work out a price for storage and maintenance.

When asked about additional fees airlines incur when an aircraft is stored at the airport, Ray told TPG that fees varied from tenant to tenant. Many airlines that store aircraft are required to follow an FAA-mandated “active storage program.” FAA guidelines state that “Storage programs are intended to preserve the aircraft in a known state through methods, techniques, and procedures designed to mitigate or eliminate the adverse effects of the storage environment and non-operation of the aircraft.” Maintenance storage programs could include regular maintenance as well as extensive aircraft overhaul procedures.

Nevertheless, for airlines that are unable to accommodate the Boeing 737 MAX at one of their own maintenance facilities, the cost to store an entire fleet of modern narrowbody aircraft is sure to add up.

Obama Admin Lied; New Memos Reveal Uranium One Exports To "Europe And Asia" Via Canada

http://uniteordiemedia.com/obama-admin-lied-new-memos-reveal-uranium-one-exports-to-europe-and-asia-via-canada/ http://uniteordiemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/lying-to-america.jpg Obama Admin Lied; New Memos Reveal Uranium One Exports To "Europe And Asia" Via Canada As the mainstream media continues to obsess over $100,000 worth Facebook ads allegedly purchased by Russian spies in 2016 seeking to throw the presidential election, behind the scenes, far removed from the sight of CNN and MSNBC, the Uranium One scandal, in which the Obama administration...

As the mainstream media continues to obsess over $100,000 worth Facebook ads allegedly purchased by Russian spies in 2016 seeking to throw the presidential election, behind the scenes, far removed from the sight of CNN and MSNBC, the Uranium One scandal, in which the Obama administration approved a deal that handed a Russian-controlled corporation 20% of America’s uranium reserves despite the existence of an FBI investigation into ongoing illegal bribery, extortion and money laundering schemes, is slowly spiraling out of control…despite CNN’s continued ignorance of the topic.

By now we’re sure that most of our readers are well aware that Obama’s approval of the Uranium One deal seemingly landed the Clinton Foundation some $145 million in donations and a $500,000 speaking gig for former President Bill Clinton from a very thankful Russian bank…if not, here are a couple of recent posts on the topic as a recap:

FBI Uncovered Russian Bribery Plot Before Obama Approved Uranium One Deal, Netting Clintons Millions

Emails Reveal Bill Clinton Met With Vladimir Putin Just Before Uranium One Deal

FBI Informant “Threatened” After Offering Details Linking Clinton Foundation To Russian Bribery Case

That said, one thing that you probably don’t know yet, primarily because of the Obama administration’s proactive attempt conceal such information, is that despite repeated assurances from Congress and Obama’s Nuclear Regulatory Commission that U.S. uranium reserves wouldn’t leave U.S. shores, it, in fact, did.

As The Hill points out today, assurances that U.S. uranium would not be exported to foreign countries was a key sticking point when Congress reviewed the deal back in 2010. As such, repeated assurances were provided that such exports would never occur…here are just a couple of examples of those assurances:

“No uranium produced at either facility may be exported,” the NRC declared in a November 2010 press release that announced that ARMZ, a subsidiary of the Russian-owned Rosatom, had been approved to take ownership of the Uranium One mining firm and its American assets.

A year later, the nuclear regulator repeated the assurance in a letter to Sen. John Barrasso, a Wyoming Republican in whose state Uranium One operated mines.

“Neither Uranium One Inc. nor AMRZ holds a specific NRC export license. In order to export uranium from the United States, Uranium One Inc. or ARMZ would need to apply for an obtain a specific NRC license authorizing the exports of uranium for use in reactor fuel,” then-NRC Chairman Gregory Jaczko wrote Barrasso.

The NRC never issued an export license to the Russian firm, a fact so engrained in the narrative of the Uranium One controversy that it showed up in The Washington Post’s official fact-checker site this week. “We have noted repeatedly that extracted uranium could not be exported by Russia without a license, which Rosatom does not have,” The Post reported on Monday, linking to the 2011 Barrasso letter.

That said, new memos obtained by The Hill now confirm that, in fact, Uranium One yellowcake did manage to escape U.S. shores repeatedly between 2012 – 2014.

Yet NRC memos reviewed by The Hill shows that it did approve the shipment of yellowcake uranium — the raw material used to make nuclear fuel and weapons — from the Russian-owned mines in the United States to Canada in 2012 through a third party. Later, the Obama administration approved some of that uranium going all the way to Europe, government documents show.

NRC officials said they could not disclose the total amount of uranium that Uranium One exported because the information is proprietary. They did, however, say that the shipments only lasted from 2012 to 2014 and that they are unaware of any exports since then.

NRC officials told The Hill that Uranium One exports flowed from Wyoming to Canada and on to Europe between 2012 through 2014, and the approval involved a process with multiple agencies.

Of course, given his repeated assurances to the contrary, Obama couldn’t simply allow Uranium One to ship uranium to the nearest port for export, so he instead signed a waiver allowing a Kentucky trucking company to carry the product across the Canadian border and then approved export from Canada to Europe.

Rather than give Rosatom a direct export license — which would have raised red flags inside a Congress already suspicious of the deal — the NRC in 2012 authorized an amendment to an existing export license for a Paducah, Ky.,-based trucking firm called RSB Logistics Services Inc. to simply add Uranium One to the list of clients whose uranium it could move to Canada.

The license, reviewed by The Hill, is dated March 16, 2012, and it increased the amount of uranium ore concentrate that RSB Logistics could ship to the Cameco Corp. plant in Ontario from 7,500,000 kilograms to 12,000,000 kilograms and added Uranium One to the “other parties to Export.”

The move escaped notice in Congress.

And while it will be dismissed by the Left as a convenient attempt for Republicans to change the “Russian collusion” narrative, Senator Chuck Grassley and others are finally starting to press for a special counsel to investigate what is clearly a scandal that is far more pervasive than anyone originally thought.

“The more that surfaces about this deal, the more questions it raises,” Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) said in a statement released after this story was published. Grassley, the chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, has launched an investigation into Uranium One.

“It now appears that despite pledges to the contrary, U.S. uranium made its way overseas as a part of the Uranium One deal,” Grassley said in the statement. “What’s more disturbing, those transactions were apparently made possible by various Obama Administration agencies while the Democrat-controlled Congress turned a blind eye.

“Americans deserve assurances that political influence was not a factor in all this. I’m increasingly convinced that a special counsel — someone with no prior involvement in any of these deals — should shine a light on this ordeal and get answers for the American people.”

So, is this what Obama meant when he told Russian President Dmitry Medvedev to let Putin know that he would “have more flexibility” after the 2012 election?
