Recently moved to external display at the Historic Aircraft Museum at the time of the photo. When the museum closed and its contents were auctioned in May 1983 it sold for £26,000 to Paul Raymond for the still-born London War Museum. It was auctioned again in 1985 selling to Kermit Weeks' Flying Heritage Collection for £24,000. It was stored at North Weald for several years, then Norfolk, arriving at Duxford in 2014. Believed to have subsequently departed to the USA.

The fuselage of Bill Francis' Spitfire on loan to the HAM and recently arrived at the time of the photo. Bill purchased the aeroplane from Pinewood Studios in 1968 with a view to restoration. It was used for cockpit shots in "Reach for the Sky" and for spares at Henlow for "Battle of Britain". Bill moved it to the garden of his bungalow in Hampton Gardens, Southend, later loaning it to the HAM after partial restoration. It moved with Bill to Southam in 1977. In 1982 it was sold to Stephen Gray, becoming G-CDAN. Subsequently restored to flight as ZK-XVI, VH-XVI. Current in 2022 marked as TB863.

One of Tony Haig-Thomas's collection of airworthy de Havilland Moth types. Lodging with the HAM and recently arrived at the time of the photo. Later repainted in a black and gold colour scheme. Struck by Musketeer G-AYWS at Old Warden on 17th July 1982 and destroyed by fire. This prompted the closing of the cross-runway to visiting aircraft. The remains were subsequently recreated by Ben Cooper and the aircraft was resident in Germany in 2022.
