Hi Gareth,
I remember that story too. The locals used to cut scraps of rubber from the tyres for shoesoles. I don't know much about that aircraft but some years ago there was a photograph in Aeroplane showing the complete tailunit of a Wimpy on display somewhere in Norway. Possibly this could be the same aircraft.
Trouble with FP is that they never publish follow up articles with more information, if its true or not etc.
