It is a Cessna 340, been dismatled for a long time. It is shown on NWAN Residents List. Anyone know its history & why it has ended up this way?

If my memory serves me rightly, the aircraft was impounded due to money issues with it's owners (Airlink Airways) with the consequent costs of parking adding to the debt. It was then pushed into the back of the hangar where it languished for a long time. I think Ravenair were 'given' it as part payment. I can only assume it was cannibalised for their own Cessna 340, which has since been sold I think. I have a good photo of it somewhere when it visited for one of the Grand national events.

Anyone seen this recently ?.
Received an offer from 'Groupon' for a 'Flight Simulator Experience' with 'Ringway Flight Simulation', looking at the photos on their website and with EI-CIJ on the Liverpool Based Residents List, they appear to be one and the same ?.
Thoughts anyone !.
Regards

I apparently need to remove it from the residents list when I get round to the next update, once time permits!
