According to this picture: http://www.airliners.net/open.file/1019827/L/ the famous 'African Queen' has been broken up recently. Apparently someone took the trouble to transport the nose section from Chandler, Arizona to Coolidge, Arizona.

Anyone has an idea why?

I asked Pat Leroux,who was flying in this airplane as either pilot or co-pilot when it was hit by the missle.He said that the cockpit/forward fuselage section in the photo is in storage in Chandler.Woody Grantham decided to save that section when the airframe was scrapped.Pat said that it is probably available if anyone seriously wants it.I'll try to find more details if necessary.
