on Friday myself and a friend went on a day's circular tour of Canary country - East Norfolk which took in Norwich itself and 5 other airfields. Some were quite quiet considering the weather and it being a bank holiday but we saw all sorts of aircraft. A bit of effort beforehand contacting the airfields got us round the hangars so something to bear in mind if you're planning a day out.
We started at Seething which was very quiet...........

Despite the missing rudder, the Beagle206 looks to be in good shape, I wonder how many of the type are still in existence?
