Just found this over on Hyperscale, interesting bit of info... so we're back to square one, are we?

Got a somewhat cryptic response back from the RAF Museum regarding their reported purchase of a Buffalo. Aeroplane Monthly has "read too much into the story" and the Museum has not purchased any Buffalo wreckage. However, the Museum stated they "would not rule out that possibility in the future." Where does this leave us? Maybe it's my turn to read too much into an e-mail but the inference seems to be that the Museum is actively looking and perhaps (my assessment only) is negotiating for some Buffalo wreckage. What is certain for the time being is that the RAF Museum has NOT purchased a Buffalo but that the Aeroplane Monthly article was NOT an April Fools. Hope this suffices to muddy the waters even further!!

Cheers,
Mark
