One of our aircraft hangars is missing

Not sure if this is historic or just bizarre, but according to the BBC an aircraft hangar weighing in at 12 tons has been stolen from the North weald museum; is it on ebay yet?

At the start of his tour at Habbaniya SENGO ‘Took Over’ 4 x Hinaidi hangars. When his tour ended it was found that there were only 3 x Hinaidi hangars to ‘Hand Over’ – the ‘locals’ had quietly had one away over a period of time.
But all was not lost. SENGO filled in a Stores Conversion Voucher converting “Hangars, Aircraft, Hinaidi, ea 1” to “Hangers, Coat, Officers for the use of, ea 1”. The CV was signed by S Equip O, and the subsequent Hanger written off for ‘6d’ (in Old Money – which a reducing number of people can actually remember!).

We had a whole Pizza Hut stolen once! The site they were planning to use has issues so all the structural steel was stored in a yard and got knicked one night.

Shades of the ex-Bottesford T2 stanchions that were stolen from NAM in the late 1990s and then all of the cladding stolen from the HLF funded hangar in January 2004.
