Hi, we’re after a few parts for a single seater Vampire project. Initial list as follows:
Elevator Trim Indicator
Fuel Gauge Panel and Gauges (shown between feet)
Windscreen de-mister pipe.
Seat (non-ejector type) mount and raising lever
Hydraulic handpump
Cockpit pressurisation vent valve
Mk 14 or early Mk 19 Altimeter
Pitot/Static line mount bracket for rear of BFP
Mk. XIC Oxygen Regulator
Rectangular cannon fire button for D style Dunlop stick-grip
Other parts…………..
Pneumatic air bottles
Wire bound oxygen bottles
Tail fin/tailplane bullet fairings (same as Venom I believe)
Any control cables
Set of Tailplane mount bolts
Boom rear fairings (fit to boom under each rudder)
Latches for radio compartment side doors
Vampire or Venom nose leg or seal kit. Also main and rear nosewheel doors
Engine mounts
Fuselage fuel tank
Ailerons
Flaps/speed brakes
Wheel and U/C doors
de Havilland Goblin 3 or 35 engine and jet-pipe
That’s the list to date, “big” parts anyway. Any Vampire/Venom parts (Vampire section reference is 26FC) parts would be of interest. Please drop me a line if you have anything availsble or know of any stocks of parts.
Thanks

Hi Mike, we’re now OK for oxygen bottles thanks. We do need the pneumatic air bottles, however, and an EVA valve (I think).
Between Bruce and ourselves we have healthy stock of vampire spares if we have not go tit Bruce will have and if neither of us have then you may struggle a bit.
Regards

If you sre not flying or wish to have a servicable oxygen system we can fix you
up with the correct wire bound bottles we have two or three with the end fittings
on as well straight out of a vampire. You cant use them as the necks have fractures and they wont
pass a pressure test.

Thanks Bruce, I’ll drop you an e-mail regarding popping over your way sometime soon.
I know the fuel gauge you mean – where does this go on a late single seater? Main panel or a sub-panel? I had assumed they were T.11 and Swiss single seater only.
Many thanks.

Come and have a mooch and a beer – I can do some of this from T11 stock.
You don’t need that sort of fuel gauge panel – your aircraft has a single gauge like the T11, but reads slightly lower.
