Plane on a highway

An out-of-service 52 seater Fokker 27 aircraft that once belonged to the now defunct East West Airlines, was on Wednesday sold by the Airports Authority of India.

The plane will be taken to the School of Engineering and Technology in Nemrana, Rajasthan.

The unserviceable plane will be used to train engineers.
