Kemble aircraft damage?

News item on local TV news appealing for information following a couple of break-ins at the airport that involved people getting into one or more aeroplanes and causing damage.

Not seen anything about it on here, although I may have missed it.

Edit: Oops, seems I'm mistaken and that this was Kemble, not Gloucester.

I think this was vandalism on jets stored at ASI in Kemble aka Cotswold Airport.

I'd assumed it was the scrappies.

Wasn't there some mention of deploying an evacuation slide? Not something you see on the average spamcan ;)

Add it to the list of other airfields which have suffered this moronic behaviour:-
Redhill
Dunsfold
Theale
Fairoaks (police helicopter specifically targeted by travellers)
and probably quite a few more I don't know about.

If you ever get back to your aircraft and find the prop polished and mounted in a bit of a log…
