I noticed the Memorial Flight have posted a 'photoscope' of the fuselage prior to covering which shows some great detail for modellers. Given that TVAL have an original, restored BE2f I reckon there is a distinct possibility that WNW could kit one of these.
The Memorial Flight are building it using the original drawings and it will have a 90 HP RAF engine (perhaps from The Vintage Aviator Ltd?). It is being finished as a modified night bomber in the markings of #2560 of 52 Squadron, complete with all its night equipment (electrical lighting, pyrotechnics, etc)
The Be2f was the official designation for Be2c fuselages mated with Be2e wings and stabilizers, offering a
slight improvement in performance
"As the aircraft is being finished as a night bomber, a fully working electric lighting system, copied from the original one, will be installed. Thus, the cockpit will be entirely lit up, and the Be2 will be equipped with navigation lights. A morse light is fitted under the fuselage and activated with a morse key located inside the cockpit"

It looks great! The Memorial Flight have confirmed it will be staying with them on completion
