Danish photographer Jan Grarup photographed the cockpit section of the aircraft during the summer of 2012, lying just across the street from a school, which was damaged during the war, but which is currently being rebuilt.

Famous quotes containing the word fate:

    ...I feel anxious for the fate of our monarchy, or democracy, or whatever is to take place. I soon get lost in a labyrinth of perplexities; but, whatever occurs, may justice and righteousness be the stability of our times, and order arise out of confusion. Great difficulties may be surmounted by patience and perseverance.
    Abigail Adams (1744–1818)
