Here it is in happier times (27 May 1972 … official opening of the HAM)

Just to set the record straight -The Proctor in the photo took on the identity of G-ANZJ / NP303. It was actually a composite airframe combining the fuelage of G-ANZJ with the wings of NP339/G-AOBW.
I think I posted before that the fuselage of G-AOBW was sawn in half and the rear fuselage with the fin and tailplane was stripped to show the structure. It was exhibited at various places prior to the museum opening including South Essex Motors at Basildon and probably a North Weald airshow but it needed regualr repairs due to glue rot. We burnt the front fuselage (except for the 24 volts door which I managed to rescue) some time before the museum opened.
The composite NP303/G-ANZJ was sold at the museum auction. I think Trent Aero bought it then found it was so far gone that an airworthy restoration was too difficult. I heard it passed to someone who wanted the engine and the rest was burnt early/mid 1980s.
I never did find out what happened to the original wings from G-ANZJ. Last I saw of them they were in the hangar the museum rented on the airport site in the block between the back of the Airport Hotel and the old Tradair hangar.
