As reported in July issue of Aeroplane. " Avro York MW322 G-ANTK had its outer wings attached at Duxford during second week of June..... One of only two surviving Yorks, G-ANTK arrived at Duxford in May 1986 from Lasham, where it had been preserved by its former operators Dan-Air"

In the mid 80's Dan-Air realised the impracticality of the restoration work being undertaken and began negotiations with The Duxford Aviation Society. In May 1986 the aircraft was dismantled and on the 23rd of May made its journey to Duxford on seven low loaders

Not sure what happened to the other aircraft.
