Wroughton 90`s

In the early 90`s i went to Wroughton`s air display (almost as good as legends i thought shame it did not last).
Does anyone have any info on a Focker Eindecker that was there flying?
What happend to it, were is it now?
Cheers

Wroughton Eindecker

Thanks for the info lads, here`s a quick pic of it on the flightline, next to it you can see the tail of the replica spitfire that came to grief.

According to this web site, the plane is at Compton Abbas and the C of A expired in 2004.

I think the only one to display back then was G-AVJO it is a replica built by Personal Plane Services at Booker. Been used in many films over the years.
Powered by a modern flat four engine rather than a Rotary. Dont know when it last flew.
