That was a Venom.
best bet is to contact Bruce Gordon at GB Air Spares
Melv would’ve approved of the advert. I hope someone takes on the red beaver
I’d contact Tettenhall they have a complete one and are very nice people
Looking great John you’re really cracking on!
Thank you for this thoughtful post- something I’d not heard about before

I thought Sea Fox but Beaufighter is a good shout
Steady on old son, no need to apologise!

All systems go for Saturday! Remember it’s a free event with plenty of military vehicles and classic cars and re-enactors – plus a selection of vintage aircraft flying in including the Hangar II P-51D ‘Tall in the Saddle’
On top of that there are a selection of model kit traders together with the (potentially award winning) Museum book and model stall – kits are VERY keenly priced and all military/aviation books are for sale by fair donation – there is plenty to choose from!
The Museum will of course also be open for you to inspect. The event starts at 1030 – public parking in the field over the road – disabled (blue badge) parking in the Cirrus Room car park – first come first served and is limited.
On site cafe, bar, restaurant, snack trailer and remember it’s FREE – if you’re able to pop a donation in the Museum donations pot inside the Museum or in one of the buckets being carried by our uniformed and badged volunteers we’d be grateful
Thereafter the Museum is open each weekend and bank holiday 1030-1630hrs until the end of September – again free entry, donations appreciated and welcomed!
Hope to see some forumites there..

Hi Martyn I didn’t but I have now- fab thanks very much!
Good stuff hopefully the photos helped!

Sadly not- the Museum isn’t open that day anyway it’s just the sale I’m afraid

Bit of a bump for this as it’s next Sunday- remember it’s outside so please wrap up warm!
Write to RAFM Cosford for the attention of Darren Priday- he works in the conservation hall and is an excellent person he may be able to help
