I didn’t know the two were owned by the CEO of a Dutch grocery retailer until I read it yesterday in the DDA information magazine. For Dutch aviation fans this is great news especially as TB885 has a 322 squadron history.
Was this earlier reported then? Haven’t seen here on the forum.

I thought it and P9372 were already owned by a certain Dutch individual or have they changed hands again?

According to the Dutch Dakota Association magazine TB885 has a new owner who has also acquired the Mk I project. This info is in the public domain so no embargo?
