These airplanes are safer on the ground than in the air.

They should tow one of them landside and turn it into an airport hotel. A unique yet simple solution to their problem.

That's quite a good idea.
It has already been done somewhere and I believe it is quite popular.

They have no value, which is why they've been dumped. I'd expect the 'owners' have also disappeared into the night.

So, if I were interested in (legally) disposing of my aircraft, what kind of costs would I be up for?

All depends on whether they are in a flyable state. Then you got to get it to Victorville and try and spare part or scrap it

Agree that would be one for the true aviation nutters (I mean fan). Also perhaps a airport museum would be another fun way to make those most of this dump.

They've turned an aircraft into a hostel. A 747-212B which was abandoned at ARN.
Turning one (or all three) of these into a 2 or 3 star hotel would be new.
