What happened to the airframe of Aloha Airlines Flight 243, after the explosive decompression? I know that the structures were studied for a while after the aircraft safely landed in Kahului Airport, but what happened after that?

According to Planespotters, it appears that the airframe in question was destroyed in August 1988.
