i would not be surprised if quite a few of the 742s are to be scrapped.. They are getting rather old and high on cycles. And since the price of a stored 744 isn’t as high as it used to be the 744 is just more appealing.
Nowadays the market for spare parts of the 742 seems to be better, than the market of complete 742s!
