Apparently they swapped a Farman F1.41 and Hanriot HD.1.

Macks, They are all replica's. Two are flyers, one is static. They are going to the RAF Museum in exchange for some of their aircraft going the other way. Old Warden have them until the end of the airshow season, they are currently being put back together and someone from TVAL in New Zealand, is on ...

All the aircraft are due to be given to the RAF Museum at Hendon at the end of the airshow season. The RE8 and Albatros will (hopefully) fly at Old Warden soon, the Snipe will be Static only.
