Information as of the 1st August .
The site and airframe is owned by a salvage company based in Essex.
It is stated that the owner intends to restore this aircraft and use it as a gate guard. He may be looking for looking for knowlegable people to assist in this effort! Familar statements, we shall see what really happens, lets hope that it can still be recovered in some way.

I just hate seeing planes that end their days like that. Such a shame.
