My shot on Mikes' site is not actually the OFMC example , but the airframe being built for the AFC Wanaka . This new built structure was later found to have the wrong dimensions and turned out to be totally useless for anything ;-0
The OFMC example consisted of a set of wings and sundry parts , which I saw in storage at Wigram ... little or no progress had been made on it ... and AFIAK it was shipped back to the U.K. As to the current status I have no idea.
