Thanks for the info guys a few reply’s but as usual quality ones.

I have done some trawling through the internet trying to find all sorts of links and the one of interest I came across was WZ507 taking off from a grass airstrip at a country show.by the amount of debris he kicked up behind I don’t think many other aircraft used that side of the strip for a while.First thing I have seen on Vampires using grass strips UK T11’s that is as I do recall seeing a photo somewhere of Venoms and overseas using rough strips and of course the Swiss did all sorts of things with theirs including wet starts as a norm throwing a fire blanket over the tail during starts to ensure starts every time.

By the way still looking for a Goblin jet engine and a fuselage fuel tank please if anyone has one lying around.
