Sorry, can't say as I was on the approach for photographs and then left soon after it landed so I do not even know where they parked it. I am sure someone will update soon.

According to the heads up section 409 was parked by the 'big hangar ' after it landed so it could well be outside over night

Reportedly parked straightaway at the southern end, in line with the RAF ones, without coming back near the tower at all after landing.

An article I've found about the work to be carried out. Should take 18 months, 409 is the first of 3 aircraft to be worked on by Marshalls
