I thought the CAHC lease had come to an end? If correct, then it's not correct to say that the Museum is being evicted. Aside from WJ945 at Newquay (the former G-BEDV), there are six other complete Varsities extant:
WF369 – Newark Air Museum
WF372 – Brooklands Museum
WF382 - stored for Allied Museum, Berlin
WL626 – East Midlands Airport Aeropark
WL679 – RAF Museum Cosford
82001 – Swedish Air Force Museum, Linköping
