Question Why None Of These Flying ?

With all the great historic british machines gracing our skies and airshows. Why have certain ones been left out or are poorly represented, while others are found in multiples, even with the same operator / group.

Are there an airworthyness issues involved or are we all just fixated with spitfires etc.

Ones that spring to mind:
Fairly Gannet, what a monster and an airworthy T5 is for sale in the US, plus I heard someone did look at restoring a AEW one at Sandtoft ?? What happended.

PB Deffiant. Is there one still under restoration to fly ??

Mozzy: Has no one any interest in getting one flying again. I remember seeing a almost complete advanced project for sale in Canada ??

Anyone care to add some more??
