Hi Cees,
Funny you should ask about those other projects, because I have been travelling quite a bit of late, and actually saw Matthew Denning's A46-122, and Greg Batts' A46-54 while I was away. Matthew's aircraft is coming along very nicely, and will have a first flight later this year. She is a stunning restoration. As for Greg's Boomerang, she has only had minor work carried out in the last few years. Will still be a number of years before she flys.
Richard Hourigan's A46-249 has not had any work carried out on it for a number of years now. Richard is a very busy guy, and also has other aircraft. The restoration of this aircraft has only ever been to static condition. Having said that, the quality of the work is brilliant, and completely original, Richard being well known for that type of work.
There are a number of other Boomerang restorations underway, but the three discussed above are certainly the most advanced. If you ever have any other Boomerang or any Australian related questions, feel free to ask.
Cheers,
Matt
