She is owned by a syndicate of members of the T31M club (Now the T31 Club) and will be operated in Surrey and Hampshire.
She is totally 'safe' and under no threat of conversion, in fact quite the opposite. She will be restored to RAF spec with the utmost care.

As owners of 'Converted' T31's, we are T31 glider enthsiasts as well, and comitted to ensuring that no further T31's are converted. There are a number of unloved, part completed, or un airworthy conversions around already, so no need to deplete the dwindling stock of gliders any further.

This thread is a fantastic resource for sharing pictures of ATC in the wood era. Could I make a plea, for you all, if you have not so far, to dig out those photos and share them here, before your offspring put them in the wheelie bin, with the comment, "Oh just bin that lot, I think it is just Dad's pictures of old gliders"!

If anybody needs help converting pictures to digital format for posting, I would be more than happy to assist, so just PM me.
