Seems the slides of the Eh team have become a victim of their popularity and exceeded their monthly bandwith.
Here are some images that will hopefully console you with their temporary loss
Coventry +/- 1985
Another Twin Pioneer for good measure, this one at Hildesheim, Germany I think 1981
One for Rob, Bristol +/- 1985
Luton probably the same year

Why? is it hard to catch?
Heathrow May last year (photobucket compressed this to 52KB by now)

The Avherald was a bit clearer with the how and what of the story
http://www.avherald.com/h?article=430a1d01&opt=0
conclusion was that the plane could not take off from this location again.
Seeing the rate at which Tu154’s (also M’s) are being chopped up at the moment I would be surprised if they made the effort to get it flying again.
this was the plane in happier days

I’ve been reading up on that Sikorsky S38 flight. From Norwich it went to Frankfurt. I found a photo of it being pushed into a hangar

A series of this type flew in the Dutch Indies (Indonesia these days) before WW2. There is a dutch aircraft illustator called Hugo Hooftman who made a drawing of this type in flight.
A print of this drawing was hanging in one of the classrooms at my old school, it looked a bit of a phantasy drawing to me at the time.
Later I learned more about the Sikorsky flying boats and discovered it was flying for real.
bit of nostalgia for you
