Preserved Vampire Airframes in Canada

[vampiredave]

I have just received a message from Al Rubin and he has confirmed that the Vampire cockpit section belonging to Vince O'Connor is that of 17007.

Now all I need to locate Vampire T.35A A79-824 Brighton VA ,USA???

Last time I was at the National Aviation Museum at Rockcliffe in Ottawa, i got to visit the relatively new storage hangar jammed with all sorts of 'hidden treasures. I noticed a set of vampire wings along the wall but didn't notice any other parts of it (at least from what I remember). There may have been a number on the wings but it was at least a couple of yrs ago so i can't recall.

Going through my photos from when I toured the storage wing at Rockcliffe, I didnt seem to have any pictures of the wings you mention.
Heres a picture of the Vampire in the main museum instead!

Cheers!

Sorry for resurrecting a dead-thread, but I just came across picture taken at Rockcliffe where you can see the Vampire wing assemblies in the background against the wall to the right.

Vampire FB 5 NZ5774 / WA411 Yesterday's Air Force, Bill Lamberton (Seattle, Canada) (private)

NZ5774 is now with the Bagotville AIr Defence Museum. It was last seen under restoration with a trade school in Montreal, but I'm not sure of its current status.

Hi folks,
Apologies for being late to the game, but is this airframe still at Bagotville?
