Just for info. I helped in cutting the plane up so i know a little about it.

Some of the major parts are going to longreach for display. The cockpit is with the NQ warbirds. they are going to do it up and make a display for kids to play on.

They were orginally just going to scrap it but at least it has been saved a little.

I love how the CPA say they removed it due to structural concerns. It wouldnt have anything to do with the 150 million dollar refurbishment of the airport would it and a nice new carpark where the plane used to be.
