Stolen Alpha-Jet wing

 

In the early 1980's the right wing of an Alpha-Jet was placed near the 9SQN building is Sint-Truiden AB (ex-Brustem AB) as a monument. I rediscovered this wing last year and as the base is now closed, I started the work of getting the wing to the 1st Wing historical centre museum in Beauvechain AB where I work as a volunteer. The plan was to restore the wing in it's special 9SQN colors and place it in the museum. The transport was arranged and the wing excavated, but a few weeks before the transport, the wing was stolen. This probably happened somewhere in december 2004. If anyone sees this wing please contact me here . here is a description of the wing:

Right wing Alpha -Jet in BAF camouflage scheme. The wing has special markings consisting of "Home of the 9SQN TEC", "CO Bouret M." and the drawing of a red apple on the top side. the underside carries the same "Home of the 9SQN TEC" markings and the drawing of a pilot. The wing has no aileron and flaps and the leading edge is made out of aluminium covered with canvas.
