As the only airline in China equipped with the Athree80, China Southern Airlines recently announced the retirement of the first two Athree80s and sealed them up in the "aircraft cemetery" in the Mojave Desert of the United States. This decision has sparked widespread attention and questions, prompting people to think about the reasons behind it and its impact on China's civil aviation industry. This article will analyze this event, explore personal perspectives, provide insights, and summarize relevant information.

The move by China Southern Airlines to retire its Athree80 has sparked widespread speculation, but the reasons behind the fact are multi-level and complex. Firstly, it is worth noting that these Athree80s are not state-owned in China, but leased from abroad, which means that the return and retirement are the responsibility of the leasing company. Therefore, sealing these aircraft in the US desert is not the sole choice of China Southern Airlines, but rather the decision of the leasing company.


Secondly, the retirement of the Athree80 involves a change of ownership by JetMidwest, which changed the aircraft registration number to the US logo. JetMidwest is an aircraft dismantling company that purchased these Athree80s with the aim of breaking them down into parts for sale, rather than permanently sealing them up in the Mojave Desert. This process will result in some parts of the Athree80 being recycled and reused, reducing waste, but also marking that these aircraft are no longer directly related to China.

From the technical status of China Southern Airlines Athree80, it can be seen that the exterior is intact. Thanks to the dry climate of the Mojave Desert, the aircraft has been well preserved. However, the visuals inside the cabin are slightly "creepy", and the business class remains spacious, but some equipment and dining items have started to become outdated and rotten, making this retired scene appear somewhat decadent.
