Intruders Ransack Parked Boeing 747 Owned By Orient Thai

Friday June 25, 12:50 AM EDT
BANGKOK, Thailand (AP)--Unidentified intruders broke into a state-owned
jumbo jet parked at a provincial airport for maintenance, and trashed
property inside, police said Friday.
The Boeing 747, owned by national carrier Thai Airways' unit, Orient
Thai Airlines, had been parked in a hanger at the U-tapao airport since
April for maintenance, said police Col. Traisoon Niemtrabd.
He said a representative of the company filed a complaint Thursday that
lifesaving equipment in the cabin and cockpit had been destroyed,
including life vests and fire extinguishers. The damage is estimated to
be worth 500,000 baht ( $1=THB40.745), he said.
U-tapao airport, about 130 kilometers (80 miles) southeast of Bangkok,
was built by the U.S. government for its B-52 bombers during the Vietnam
War, and is now under the control of the Thai navy. Thai Airways uses
the airport for repairing its aircraft.
Orient Thai Airways officials confirmed the ransacking of the jetliner
but refused to give details.
Traisoon said the intruders didn't intend to steal property but seemed
to have been motivated by malice or by an intent to embarrass the
company or the navy, he said.
"At this point we do not rule out internal conflict among all the
agencies concerned," he said.
