Built as a nod to the one that used to stand at Southend Airport Museum in my childhood, that my mother memorably got stuck in because she was scared to come down the ladder from the flight deck.

I think I ordered it through Hannants in the UK. Been in my stash for a few months.
I went in XB261, which was an exhibit at the Southend Air Museum, as a child in the 70s and 80s. It was HUGE!
My mum got stuck up the ladder to the cockpit and my dad had to help her down. As kids, me and my sister thought this was hilarious 🙂)

There is one outside the RAF museum in Hendon if I'm not mistaken. Not the most attractive aircraft but a very impressive double-decker.

I believe that's gone now, got scrapped some years ago. Only full survivor at Fort Paull near Hull.
The Southend one's cockpit is in Newark Air Museum in Notts.
