Static F-100 Super Sabres in Europe

Good Morning,
I’m trying to locate the whereabouts of the following F-100s. Can anybody help please.
F-100F 56-3927 was at Billund, Denmark. Where did it go when the museum was closed?
F-100D 55-2734 was at a campsite at Chatillon-en-Dois in South West France or was it Chatillon-en Diois?
Finally, F-100D 54-2272. Conflicting stories have this aircraft at Paris and Sculthorpe at varying times. It was certainly at Sculthorpe in 1976. There is a suggestion it was scrapped at Sculthorpe.
I hope someone out there knows!

F-100D 55-2734

According to this http://www.joebaugher.com/usaf_serials/1955.html

North American F-100D-35-NH Super Sabre
54-2734 (c/n 224-1) to French AF.
Noted Apr 2004 preserved at l’Epopee de l’Industrie et de l’Aeronautique, Albert, France painted as ‘42272’”

And according to the website of the museum, they still list 54-2734 as being in their collection – see http://www.musee-eia.com/liste_eia.pdf and http://www.musee-eia.com/

(The F-100D is listed as no. 47 in their collection)
