Earlier this year, Finnair and recycling partner Kuusakoski dismantled and recycled a 21-year old Airbus A319 aircraft that had reached the end of its economic life cycle. We originally estimated to be able to reuse and recycle about 90-95% of the aircraft. The final recovery rate was even higher than expected: only 0.8% of the aircraft ended up in disposal.
This was the first ever commercial passenger aircraft recycled in Finland.
