Very sorry to hear, Patrick. Unfortunately there is more of this happening nowadays. GA has amazingly escaped the attention of the vandals for decades… I wonder who can make use of certified avionics? They are not going into a Ford Cortina, for sure. They are going somewhere where they can be self installed.
Patrick, what did the airport say? Do it they not have CCTV?

Sadly I’m grounded at the moment, after some very clumsy thieves got into my plane while it was parked at Fairoaks, and unsuccessfully attempted to forcibly remove my entire panel, destroying lots and lots of things in the process.
I’m sorry man, that is horrible.
That’s shocking! Were you parked outside?
Here are some pics of Patrick’s plane after break-in from another thread. It was parked outside.
