: It still exists and is in Holland. It used to be on displa

: This section is the rear fuselage just aft of the cockpit
: and ends just in front of the fin. The reason why it survi
: ved because it was used as a shower cabin (it's true). It
: was put upright and buckets of water were poured in from a
: bove. There is still a patched up door to be seen on the s
: ection, where the persons used to enter the cabin. One sid
: e is in original colours and markings, the other side has
: been restored and repainted. I must have a photo somewhere
: .

: There is also the topsection of a vertical fin on display
