Its early Vampire F.1, FB.5 and Venom FB.1. Later they went on to use Mk.8Q & Mk.8T.

spark plug the 12 volt version of the Mk.8B is the Mk.8A

Right.

A general reply all who wish to have a go cleaning up the slides. You should be able to download them direct from my Flickr site at the original size. If you can’t e mail me and I will send what you want.

I would like to see the original cleaned up like I have seen on this thread already. As I have more space on my Flickr site than I will never use, if you want to crop and change I am happy to put that on next to the original to show what can be done. All credit will be given.

I’m please that so many have enjoyed my pictures. I was very lucky to have been at the right place at the right time, plus it was a honor to know Eric Hayward and for him to trust me with his slides

As for starting the swordfish – never again. Thanks Bill

Timc63, trumper and anybody else.

The slides are in my possession. They were given to me personally by Eric Hayward. I have sat on them for years and finally decided to try my hand with a cheepy scanner and scan them in and put them on my Flickr site giving Eric full credit.

I can believe the amount of hits they have had and the interest they have produced.

I am open to all and any help any one can give me in producing a better result. The question is what to do with the better results. Do I use them to replace my attempts on my Flickr site or start a fresh site??

The next load is from Eric’s scrap book on the rebuild of Hunter F.50 G-HUNT

Many thanks
