The Case of Missing Starfighter

The World

A display model of an F-104 Starfighter jet, parked outside the Deelen Airbase Museum in the Netherlands, has gone missing.

It was a half-scale model display of the fighter bomber and the Dutch authorities are looking for the culprits.

For the Geo Quiz we are looking for the nearest Dutch city.

It is the capital of Gelderland province and is near the Nerderrijn river.

The answer is Arnhem in the Netherlands.

Anchor Marco Werman talks to Edwin van Brakel, head of the local airbase museum to find out more about the theft.
