The Pucaras in the UK should be the following, sightings via various spotters reports collected by an anonymous Argentine aircraft tracker at: http://www.geocities.com/aeromilitaria_ar/otras/preservados/intro_i.htm Last notes are a bit old in the tooth, but it gives a reasonable picture of the population.
A-515 Cosford Aerospace Museum, Cosford (U.K.) Jul 1998 Wore RAF serial ZD485 briefly.
A-517 (G-BLRP) Somewhere in Witney, Oxfordshire (U.K.) 1995 Last known owner Rod J. H. Butterfield. This one seems to be missing, perhaps the people at Flypast know more about this one.
A-522North East Air Museum (U.K.) May 1999 RAF maintenance number 8768M allocated, former FAA museum at Yeovilton.
A-528 Norfolk & Suffolk Aviation Museum, Flixton (U.K.) Nov 2000 Undergoing restoration.
A-533 DERA Boscombe Down Museum (U.K.) Apr 2002 Nose only.
A-549 Imperial War Museum (U.K.) Mar 2001 Falklands exhibit, hangar 3.
Hope this helps.
Arthur:
The argentine aircraft tracker is Mr. Carlos Ay, former editor of the well reputated argentinian aircraft magazine PISTA 18.
Today Mr Ay is the webmaster of http://www.aeromilitaria.com.ar and http://www.pista18.com.ar . The first site was mentioned by you in your previous post, and the last site is the current digital version of PISTA 18 magazine, where I work as european correspondent.
