The pilot of N98615, a vintage Piper J3C-65, landed at Whitehorse and after parking, tied the aircraft's left wing to the ground and the tail to the bumper of a nearby fuel truck. The pilot then left the area. The driver of the fuel truck eventually appeared and drove away, pulling the aircraft to pieces. The remaining pieces of the a/c are bent and twisted, likely reducing the a/c to a write-off.
