That's what I asked in my previous post.
A bit more research in the meantime suggests that the wings, tail feathers and engines may in fact still be at Enstone.
If that's the case, there are now enough bits in the UK to rebuild a substantially complete and representative Mk.31M. Let's hope that happens - it would fill an important gap in our heritage.
A lot of bits came back with NZ 5911, and in all it looks like a lot of work, see photo of flight deck, but it is not as bad as the Bolingbroke that is being restored and that is coming along fine, and the Bristol Fighter that is being "restored" was built from scratch from the original drawings.
