Sun Journal said:In order to get the plane ready for flight almost 30 years after being grounded in Auburn, Lufthansa mechanics are now replacing every rivet and any panels that are corroded. They are also cleaning out the wings for fuel storage and replacing the cargo doors with original passenger doors.
