:Ian,

The mishap you are referring to most probably was the incident involving the machine belonging to the Messerschmitt Foundation. It had engine-problems during the ILA in Berlin. This is not the same machine as the Vormezeele aircraft.

Although the Vormezeele aircraft was restored to airworthy condition I wonder if it actually ever flies.
