Default submersible well pump

I have a 4" steel well casing, the top 5' of the casing is
so encrusted with rust scale that
I can't get the pump out. I have tried chipping out the
scale but can't get it all.
How would a well repairman get it out?
I have a backhoe and I'm thinking of digging down as deep as
I can and cutting off
the casing. Then put a piece of 5" plastic well pipe in with
a rubber coupling to fix it.
Has anyone ever tried this?
