PAMELA Project
Template:Linkless Pamela Project Process for Advanced Management of End of-Life-Aircraft is an enterprise set up by Airbus in Southern France with the aim of recycling aircraft parts.
The project's ultimate goal is protecting the environment. Instead of letting old passenger aircraft rust and detoriate in airport perimeters, aircraft will be decommissioned and recycled.
Airbus estimates that more than 4 000, or about 200 aircraft per year, will finish active service between 2004 and 2023 and that between 85% and 95% of their components can easily be recycled, reused, or recovered.
