Another article puts the repair bill at USD$50 million, which I would think
it quite a bit less than it would cost to buy a new one.


You forget about insurance. From what I heard, once the plane was fixed
and put into service, it was quickly sold to some other airline.


You heard wrong - it is still in service with Qantas, it was parked on
the stand next to my flight a few days ago.
