Cool Great start

Shalom


This is a nice start of a version of the vampire that is not so popular. However, the trainers were numerous with many air forces around the world especially in areas of British influence.

I had the opportunity of seeing a British version in France when I was working with Airbus. They had an aviation museum in Toulouse.

I know that the French built many single seat Vampires under license and named them Mistral.

Here are some pics I took that may help your model development:
