Ex Air Afrique, had just been re-assembled following transport by boat and road from Luxembourg to this location in the Leeghwaterpark in Purmerend. It is now seen here being prepared for use as a pancake restaurant, carrying "Intralux" titles. The restaurant was abandoned in the 1990s and the aircraft set on fire by vandals several times between 29 July 1998 and 31 December 1999. This caused too much damage, and it was eventually broken up for scrap on 23 August 2000.
