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!).
S’not what y’know – S’who y’know!!!

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.
