Mike - see link below
All are airworthy "serving" aircraft and fly with military serial numbers rather than civil registration (c/f BBMF)
The Swordfish Mk I, W5856, may have been civil registered by BAe for test flying but I wonder if it was taken back on charge by the FAA and it's civil registration lapsed
No doubt someone will confirm
