    Subject: N70QT is on ebay
    Breaking up something valuable, such as N70QT, has always triggered my memory of an incident that occurred in South Africa 20 or so years ago. N70QT's story is different: the mishap already inflicted the necessary damage on the plane to make the first strike to break her up easier. It was a typical summer thunder storm, which poured rain and sizable hail onto everything in the city. Insurance claims of damaged vehicles and property poured into insurance companies. Also, a Ferrari V12 Boxer that suffered extensive body damage. A huge repair bill stared at the insurance assessor as he looked the car over. Then, his experience tugged at his instinct. He told the insured that he is not qualified to assess such an impressive automobile and would like him to bring it into their facilities to have it properly assessed, Columbo-style, if you know what I mean. Once the car was in their workshops, the insurance assessors photographed the entire body of the Ferrari from all angles and a profile shot from the top. Painstakingly, they connected the dents that the hail punched into the body skin. Then, they made a startling discovery confirming the assessor's instinct. There were circular patterns in the dent arrangement on the body. It turned out that the insured had the Ferrari safely parked inside his garage at the time of the storm (who wouldn't?) and after the hailstorm had come and gone, seeing the wide-spread damage it caused, he set out with a round-headed hammer covered with some soft material, and started beating the Ferrari so as to have the insurance company pay it off and repair it for him. Needless to say, he ended up being stuck with the repair bill and a criminal charge of fraud plus a whole slew of other charges. As I said at the beginning of this story, it always bothers me how someone could inflict the first blow to cause damage to something that's in perfectly good working order. Once the fraud was underway, it was easy to strike the next blow and the next and the next. But the first one. That's the one that gets me.
