Beech Staggerwing

Can somebody tell me what happened of the Beech 17 Staggerwing F-APFD which was in the Luftwaffe Beutepark n°5 of Nanterre -France (mid 1940) ?

Thanks

Re: Beech Staggerwing

The whole of material was scrapped after war except the I153 actually in the Musée de l'Air. It was an easy job as a great scrap metal industrial yard was setted some yards from the Courbevoie Armée de l'Air depot. No too much sweats. On the credit side French humor in 1945 was not really at war celebration, a new and more pleasant area was beginning.

Merci beaucoup. C'est quand même dommage;on avait vraiment besoin de casseroles en aluminium...
