They are stored at Ghedi. There's currently a total of four stored there, plus a few in a pretty sorry state on the dump

I didn't as I don't shoot that sort of stuff. Urky did, but the Italians will not want them shown. Why would you want to see them when you can look at the 'proper' stuff that is still flying? Much nicer!
