Fate of the F-14s

It depends on condition, quatity, alloy, etc, and varies day to day, but a rough rule of thumb would be on the order of $0.25/lb for aluminum and $0.10/lb for steel. An F-14 weighs about 40,000 lb and assuming a 50-50 mix of steel and aluminum by weight gives about $7,000 minus the labor to get it to scrap. -- Jim Pennino Remove .spam.sux to reply.
