The Hudson in Gander was removed from the pylon and now stored in the aviation museum. ACAM's is a long-term project with recent interest by some volunteers to begin restoration. There is a third in Nova Scotia - it landed on a frozen lake in March 1943 but fell through the ice shortly thereafter. Apparently it is complete and in restorable condition. The Greenwood Military Aviation Museum has salvage rights to this aircraft.
