Schipol Airport Air Museum-Where did it go?

There was an air museum at Schiphol Airport in the 1990s? I understand that it has been moved or its collection acquired by another museum. Where?

The Supermarine Spitfire Mk. IX that was on display there had been flown by my step-uncle during and immediately after the war.

I am visiting in the fall, and have a layover at Schiphol.

Thanks. But I see the Spitfire is a replica. Where did the original go?

MH424 H-53 was in fact MJ271, now at Duxford.
