I have various phots of XS230 amongst others.
Tony,
Any of XS231 also ?
.
I think he means 174 :confused:
Thank you for your ‘input’ :rolleyes:
.
This cockpit section had already been sold, questions will be asked!!!!:mad:
Which ? WT339 ?
.
Hi Dave T,
I owe you a massive thank you! Without the link you sent me in January, in response to my very first post on this forum, I wouldn’t have started down the PR9 route, so technically its all your fault !!!!!!!
James,
tee hee… no worries. Always happy to point people towards available cockpits ~if~ they are geniune.
And as you say, Ross is ‘da man to talk to. And i presume he’s told you about a possible source for the nose also ?
Meanwhile i’ll keep an ear to the ground for your parts request/s, but meanwhile you might want to chase the hulk of B.I.8 WT339 at Barkston Heath for bits.
Cheers…..

Canopy was with Retro.
Good to see ‘174 saved at last. I wanted it, but it’s oh so big !!! 😮
Cheers….

There is ‘no other’ magazine….
Ohhh yes there is, Classic Wings. Simply awesome !!
.
Oh my poor old JayPee !!
Do you have any photo’s of the other Vampire ? I’m told it’s now broken in half due to a hard life outdoors.

Hi K225
My colleague is happy now:D
We had an inkling it was blue through looking at B&W contrasts, but this confirms it
cheers

But he’ll still need to add RESCUE to the underside on the bomb doors. 😀

John,
Alas Xtradecal aren’t infalable. Hasegawa have it as red/daglo in their kit, which i suspect is correct. By 1961 FM104 had its scheme changed to the more common upper white fuselage with red/white/red broader stripes.

Xtradecal also missed the fact the word ‘RESCUE’ is written in large letters on the bomb doors, thus….

Ok i’ll rephrase that…. what is the make of the kit and the after market decal sheet ?
.
Which kit ?
.
I have been watching, still am watching, and most certainly will be watching Cees. Keep up the good work….

Peter,
Dave is correct, eBay is indeed the Lord Lucan of the internet.
Unless it harms there day to day cash cow/flow, they don’t want to know. Or if something is a PR disaster and they get the likes of Sky news hounding them.

” It’s elementary, Mr. Watson “
You could always have a trawl of “Seen on E-Bay” thread where you will find your man posting quite recently in reply to me.
This is the only recent posting i can find in reply to Andy’s….
