XA-ROM was stored for a long time at Guadalajara, Mexico. But was removed to make room for airport enlargements. The fuselage ended up in Atizapan just north of Mexico City, just outside the airport fence. Tail and wing sections were stored inside the hulk. A group of volunteers was planning to preserve the cockpit section. By late 2018 the fuselage was painted in bright colours.
