If it's there it will not stay long anymore, because the city is currently in the progress of cleaning up the neighborhood I’ve been there yesterday and must say to school is awful state, I can’t enter it, so I’m not sure the plane is still there.

The address is Emiel Verhaerenlaan 24 (I'm not sure about the number anymore), 2050 Antwerpen, Belgium At the time I went to school there, there was no plane yet. Afterwards the school changed to a STI or something (Technical Community school or in dutch: Stedelijke technische school). If I think about it, I will drive by the school tomorrow for some more information.

Do you know of any other sites which are likely to have pictures or information. I have looked but I have found very little. If anybody can provide further details then that would be great (preferably in English or French... very poor French!).

I thought (not sure) the students rebuild the plane again and made it work again technically, but it never flied. A few years before that they made another plane. So no the plane didn't crash there. If you want to know anything more about the area just asked, I lived there for the first 30 years of my live... and still visit the neighborhood regularly P.eter The school indeed is abandoned since a few years, but when the school was active it had a class about aviation for the technical students there.

I guess the pilot could have brought it down safely if there was once a large field or open area. It doesn’t look crashed.

I'd love to see a picture of it in happier times with people sunbathing around it and eating picnics under the wings! Those photos certainly make the scene look very grim.
