If so simply submit an invoice to whoever is responsible.

No-one could have taken any offence at what you posted – I was just saying that with such a meaningless Thread Title you are less likely to generate interest from experts you need to attract to answer your question.

A meaningful thread title might help elicit what you need.

Mike – would be lovely if you could top off the brilliant restoration by applying the civil scheme.

My original book DOES include individual aircraft histories.

Even included a little sheet to stick in which covered a few overlooked by the printer! Glad to hear of the proposed update, always rated the original.

And Super Ace KVF?

It is at Coventry and never moved to NQY. It is not presently airworthy.

A rough list of airworthy aeroplanes:
Avro Anson
DH Rapide
DH Rapide
DH Devon
DH Chipmunk
DH Vampire T.11
DH Venom
DH Venom
Douglas DC3
Douglas DC3
Gloster Meteor T.7
Gloster/AWA Meteor NF11
Percival Proctor
Percival Prentice
Percival Pembroke
Percival Jet Provost
Percival Jet Provost

Not sure I’ve missed any but I think this list constitutes more than ‘not many’. In fact I would say in the UK only the Shuttleworth Collection have more.

In addition our Auster is airworthy.

That’s a useful heads-up as it would be frustrating to be caught out if planning a visit. I went there in 2000 and luckily got on one of the trips to the outstation that contained the Presidential aircraft etc.

I see that the Dominie (Dragon Rapide) which they have will not be moved across to the new building. It is one of those chosen as less significant and so to remain behind and not clear if it will be accessible in future. At least they had the type on display for many years. That is more than can be said for the RAF Museum. As an aside, I recall seeing the RAFM example back in the day (1970s) stripped down at Cardington but its restoration was never completed and it is now entombed in store at Stafford.

Thanks markb, I think you are right. It looks like it’s been relocated behind some buildings. Found a 2014 image on the web which seem to show it in that new position.

DanS333, no that is not the one but thanks for trying to help. That Bristol Freighter at Woodlyn Park in use as a hotel is a different aircraft, namely NZ5903.

The aircraft I am trying to track down is ex NZ5911 / ZK-EPG. It was stored for many years at Ardmore assembled apart from its fin. It was put up for sale and moved a couple of years ago, since when I can find no reports of its new location. Can anyone help me locate it?

Here is a link to a report about its move from Ardmore in 2011, but to where?

ZK-EPG the Freighter pictured above was moved a couple of years ago from its prior location at Ardmore. Anyone know where it is now?

Apparently there is a technical issue they are trying to resolve.
