Actually I think 9G-LCA has been given by Mr Azhima to the CL44 association.
I visited the aircraft inside and outside a month ago as I was attending the Cl44 association yearly convention in Bournemouth.
Unfortunatly, even if it still looks very nice from outside, you realise as you get closer that it is getting quite heavely corroded. Same inside the cockpit.
And there are no engine, pitot/static covers.
The thing witch might be possible, would be to restore it to a conditon were they could ask for a special permission of the CAA to ferry fly it to any of the great aircraft museum places. But they shouldn't wait to much as corrosion is progressing daily, and it will soon be to late.
