There is some debate about this Storch's true identity, but it is thought to be c/n 110064. It was sold for £24000 at the Philip's auction on 10 May 1983, then went to the USA where it became N2405P. This registration was cancelled on 11 February 2011. It was apparently delivered new to the Royal Swedish Air Force as Fv.3812. Other IDs suggested are D-EYWB (prior to delivery to Sweden) and N464FB. (It was reported in Wrecks & Relics 10 to have gone to the USA as N156FS after the closure of the Whitehall Theatre of War, but this has the c/n 4642.)

In the HAM compound prior to the official opening 27th May 1972. Unusual shot with the wings folded and one of the last in these marks as by 14th May it was repainted as "XE364". The museum closed in May 1983 and the contents auctioned, XE489 fetching £6500. Bacame G-JETH. The wing spar attachments were found to be cut through so FB.3 WM983 was acquired and became G-JETH instead. XE489 with the wings of WM983 (in themselves from WV909!) was sold in the Netherlands. The aircraft marked as "XE489" at Charlwood is G-JETH with the fuselage of WM983 and just the wings from the original XE489.
