A sorry end?

Can anyone tell me whats the latest on Gatwick's Trident? For years it was parked on the remotest of remote stands in the woods by the fence where the fire crews used to blow it up occasionally but recently I see it has been moved to behind the FLS hangar (this must have been 3 weeks ago at least) looking rather sorry for herself...
Are there any plans for it (I can imagine Mr Vallance across the way casting a tempted eye over it) or will it face an unceremonius end and get the axe?
I for one would like to see it paked over with the shackletons on the other side of the fence and restored to what it was. The BEA Trident at LHR puts it to shame!
