Warbirds of Great Britain/Flying A Sevices

I know this has already been brought up in previous threads but i'm rather intrigued at the location and types of aircraft in those mysterious containers belonging to Flying A Services/Warbirds of Great Britain?

As a young spotty 16 year old I did my work experince with Intrepid Aviation that used to be housed in the hangar adjacent to the hangar that was always locked and never really had anything going in and out. But one day there was some activity and i got talking to two gentleman about the three complete airframes which were a Wildcat and Hellcat and a Corsair. The Hellcat was moved by road as i remember helping loading it up onto a low loader and the Corsair being flown away to a new loacation.

What happened to the containers which i was told contained at least a few Spits and rumour of a P40 and a FW190? and what happened to the wildcat?

This is a story which has had many people intrigued for ages. If anyone has any details please share with the community lol
