On static display from the Stockport Aircraft Preservation Society (later renamed The Aeroplane Collection). This aircraft gained notoriety when it was used to dump a murdered body in the Essex marshes on 5 October 1949. Damaged in forced landing following engine failure on take-off at Bickmarsh 7th June 1969. Rebuilt by SWHAPS at St, Athan 1970. To Stockport Aircraft Preservation Society 1975. To the Nene Valley Aircraft Collection 1981. The fuselage frame subsequently passed to East Kirkby and was last reported in Lewes, Sussex in October 1992 and has probably been scrapped.
