Hi Gareth,

Although I am not an insider regarding the exact plans for the restoration of IWM aircraft, I read recently that they were planning to do some work on the Hermes fuselage. The planned expedition in October to the Hermes wreck in the desert was also with the intention to find useful components for this restoration.

When I visited Duxford in May the condition of the Hermes fuselage was not pristine with paint peeling and corrossion.
Certainly a candidate for restoration.
