In the last month I've spotted 3 different light aircraft showing up on trackers in suburban neighbourhoods. First thought was that it was one of the anomalies that turn up from time to time, but on doing some detective work 2 of the 3 seem to be at the residences of the registered owners.
So, it is possible that the wings were taken off and transported to the properties, assuming they have garden/garage space, but I think that this is unlikely. Might I be seeing some electronic part of the aircrafts that encompasses the transponder and they are being powered up from time to time ? Curious.
