    Hi Jack
    possible mis-reading/recalling? Hurricane replica V7767 (BAPC.72), built at Pinewood for the “Battle of Britain” film, would have been at Coventry about that time. It is now called V6799 at the Staverton Jet Age Museum. The Bf109 replica could have been another “Battle of Britain” survivor – BAPC.67 was at Coventry, now at Hawkinge Battle of Britain Museum
    At Cosford, I wonder if WV156 is a mis-recording of their Provost WV562? WD931 nose end is still there in “deep store”
    Hope this might help

    Of course Feggans Brown had already built the FSMs for the TV series “A Piece of Cake”. I’m aware of the following:

    BAPC.202 Spitfire MA467ended up at Maes Artro Leisure Park, by Llanbedr. On e-bay 2006 and not heard of since
    BAPC.209 Spitfire MJ751 FJ-N now at the Niagara Falls Museum
    BAPC.283 Spitfire, serial not known, now in store in the Isle of Man, previously seen at Jurby
    ———- Spitfire cockpit, prepared for the TV but not used, now with Alan Partington in Catford

    From their build date of 1990, I suspect that Spitfire BAPC.206/MH486 and Hurricane BAPC.205/Z3427 at Hendon might also be Feggans Brown products, but am waiting confirmation or otherwise.
