One for our Canadian Friends - early Vampire wheels

Thu May 16, 2013 8:22 pm

Hi, I'm trying to help a friend track down a set of early style wheels, brakes and gear legs for a de Havilland Vampire. These are for the early spoked style of wheels used on the single seat Vampires - the F3, FB.5, FB.9 etc rather than on the later T.11. These were used on the Canadian and Zew Zealand aeroplanes so, hopefully, there are a few still kicking around. If anyone knows of any please drop me a line.

They're also after an upper nose cone (British type, not the elongated Swiss version). Again, any leads, please shout.

Thanks
