G-AJBJ & G-AKOE (which looks almost complete and has been given a British Airways paint job) have also remained untouched for several years. I believe the Company set up for restoration work no longer exists so the fate of these two aircraft is in doubt too. At least they are stored in a hanger/workshop so they could be sold as work in progress.

Posted on 20 February 2022 by e.stoddart1948@outlook.comA photo of G-AIUL dated September 2021 shows it stripped back to just part of the fuselage and undercarriage. No sign of any attempt at restoration over the last 10 years and I think it is likely to be scrapped by now.
