To be fair to the RAFM, they never had possession of the Beverley, it was just abandoned at Hendon by the RAF (I was told that there was some severe internal politics on that one).

Oh, you'll be glad to now the new exhibition will soon expanded by an IL-2......(Swapped for a Spitfire, possibly an F21)
