As for the Grasshopper, this was what was passed onto Demobbed:
XP458 ex Norwich Museum, a recent visit here confirmed that this airframe was returned to its owner back in 1987 after it was damaged whilst on display. The museum is somewhat bemused by the continued sightings of it at museum since then.
W&R 23 notes the Grasshopper under the City of Norwich Museum but states “ex Fakenham area. Stored.”
:confused: I’m slightly surprised at their bemusement, perhaps they need to amend the listing that Mr Ellis sends out to every museum before each edition of W&R is published!
